We are an independent local charity that aims to give people the opportunity to be involved in the development of local health and social care services, empowering and supporting the people we work with to have an effective voice in the community. We operate and manage a number of service user involvement projects as well as working to establish and support some self-governing, self-directing service user and community led organisations.

A good hospital discharge should help people feel prepared for what happens next.

That might mean having:
✔️ Clear information
✔️ The right equipment
✔️ Appropriate care and support
✔️ Follow-up arrangements
✔️ Someone to contact if problems arise

But what happens when these things aren't in place?

Healthwatch England is gathering people's experiences to understand what works well and where improvements are needed.

If you've recently experienced hospital discharge, share your experience.

Leaving hospital isn't always as simple as it should be.

Maybe you had to wait longer than expected to leave.

Maybe you weren't sure what would happen next.

Maybe you didn't have the equipment, care, information or support you needed.

Or perhaps everything went well.

Whatever your experience, Healthwatch England wants to hear from you.

👉 Share your experience through the survey: https://vist.ly/5hmxm

Have you or someone you care for experienced leaving hospital and felt that the process could have been better?

Join Healthwatch Wandsworth, Ruils Independent Living, St George’s University Hospitals NHS Foundation Trust and other local organisations for an interactive assembly exploring hospital discharge experiences.

💬 We want to hear directly from patients and carers about what works well, what could be improved and what support is needed when leaving hospital.

The session will help inform work around the implementation of the NHS England Carers and Hospital Discharge Toolkit and identify opportunities to improve the experience of leaving hospital.

📅 Thursday 1st October 2026
⏰ 3–5pm
📍 Earlsfield Library, 276 Magdalen Rd, London SW18 3NY

🎟️ Spaces are free, but registration is required. Scan the QR code on the flyer to register or click the link in our bio.

Today, Healthwatch England launches a national survey to understand what happens when people leave hospital.

Were you discharged when you felt ready? Did you receive the right information and support? Were there delays, or did you find that care, equipment or follow-up arrangements weren't in place?

Your experience matters. By sharing what happened, you can help Healthwatch England raise patient and carer experiences with national decision-makers, including the NHS and Government.

The survey is open from 17th August to 9th October 2026.
