P*P is delighted to welcome the announcement that local Healthwatch organisations and Healthwatch England will be retained following the Government's decision to withdraw proposals for their abolition from the Health Bill. 💜

As the host organisation for Healthwatch Sunderland, Healthwatch Middlesbrough, and Healthwatch Redcar and Cleveland, we know first-hand the vital role that Healthwatch plays in ensuring people's experiences, concerns and ideas help shape local health and social care services.

At P*P, we remain incredibly proud of the dedication, professionalism and commitment shown by our Healthwatch teams and volunteers throughout this period. Their work has continued uninterrupted, ensuring local people have a voice in decisions about health and social care services that affect their lives.

We look forward to learning more about the proposed reforms and to working with Healthwatch England, local authorities, NHS partners and communities to help strengthen patient voice and maximise the impact of Healthwatch in the years ahead.

Most importantly, we would like to thank our staff, volunteers, partners and everyone who has shared their experiences through Healthwatch. This decision reflects the continued importance of listening to local people and putting their voices at the heart of health and social care.
