Healthwatch Leeds

Healthwatch Leeds We make sure your voice influences health and care services so that these services are made better. Understanding our work & what we do

1.

Healthwatch Leeds is here to help local people get the best out of their local health and care services by bringing their voice to those who plan and deliver services in Leeds. We actively gather views from local people and communities about their experiences of services. We use these in different ways to influence change. Good Practice Principles

2. We work together with our health and social care partners to identify how we can have the most influence and make the best use of our resources.

3. When services are planned or changed, we ensure that local people are being listened to. We will always check whether their views have been taken into account.

4. We provide an information, advice and signposting service for the public about finding and accessing health and care services.

Sometimes the smallest connection makes the biggest difference.
A quick message, a shared cup of tea, a local group chat, these are the moments that light up the season.

Happy Children in Need Day! Last week, BBC Radio Leeds visited The Old Fire Station in Gipton, where we are based as part of the Children in Need Thousand Mile Challenge, where radio presenters are joined at the ankle to other famous faces. We saw the BBC Radio Leeds team leave as they walked from the new MND Centre at Seacroft Hospital to Headingley Stadium.

Meet Caitlin, our new placement volunteer 👋
Yesterday, Caitlin and Parveen went to Blackburn Hall in Rothwell to talk to locals about the NHS app and whether or not they would use it to leave feedback about services.

They were told...
"People might not give feedback (good or bad) on the NHS App about their care because they're worried it could lead to worse care or a bad relationship later on."
