Healthwatch Blackpool

Healthwatch Blackpool Independent champion for the views of local residents who use Health and Social Care services. This is your chance to have your say and make a real difference.

We specialise in gathering the experiences of local people using health and social care services, and feed them back to the people who run them. We hold the services to account and make recommendations on how to improve. We're here to listen to your experiences, provide you with information and advice about your health and social care options, and put you in touch with other organisations who can assist you. We have regular consultations and reviews in which we ask the residents of Blackpool for their views and experiences. We visit health and social care services using our "enter and view" powers. We collect all the information and publish it publicly as well as taking it to the commissioners of the services so they can make positive changes.
