Reaching out to our local community

We strive to make sure we hear from as wide a range of our community as possible. We want to tell the people who make decisions and change things about the experiences everyone has with health and care services. 

We understand that factors such as culture, location, wealth, education, environment and discrimination can lead to worse health outcomes, and we support the strong consensus that this must change. At Healthwatch, we stand ready to help by doing more to amplify the voices of communities that go unheard and reduce the barriers they face. 

Insights and Analysis

A medical professional listens to a mans chest.

We listen to people's stories about health and social care services in Halton. Each and every month, we receive and review experiences about services including local GPs and Dentists, our local hospitals, Community Services, Mental Health and Social Care Services, including care homes.

Every story is valued, and evaluated - to establish what has worked well, and what potentially could have worked better. It is our view, that local services should meet the needs of local people.

Our findings are detailed in our trends analysis reports. Produced quarterly (every three months) they report on individual services, and also services as a whole right across the borough. We share the reports with our partners in the NHS and Local Authority, and they are also available right here on the website.
