Your story has the power to make a difference.

The more people share their ideas, experiences and concerns about local health and care services, the more those services can understand what works, what doesn't and what people want from care in the future.
 
We use your stories, ideas and experiences to encourage those who run services to act on what matters to you. 
 
If it matters to you, it's likely it matters to someone else too. We want to hear your views. Get in touch and share your story.

Using your story for media

To promote our campaigns we use people's stories to show what needs to change. The media (newspapers, radio or TV) ask if we have people who can their story when we publish a press release about our research. 

Would you be happy for us to contact you about your experience for media purposes or to use your story as a case study in our material? We won’t pass on your name and contact details to the media without speaking to you first about what it involves.
