The majority of our work is only possible when people talk to us about their experiences of using local health and care services, good and bad. By understanding your needs and issues we are able to help improve services.
We are the independent champion for people who use health and social care services in Haringey.
We are here to make sure that those running local services, and the government, put people at the heart of care.
