About us
Who we are
Healthwatch Wakefield is your local health and social care champion. From Overton to Knottingley and everywhere in between, we make sure NHS leaders and other decision-makers hear your voice and use your feedback to improve care.
If you use GPs, hospitals, dentists, pharmacies, care homes or other support services in our area, we want to hear about your experiences. We are independent and impartial, and anything you say is confidential. We can give you reliable and trustworthy information and advice to help you to get the support you need, including advocacy for formal NHS complaints.
Healthwatch Wakefield is an independent charity. We employ a small staff team and are helped by volunteers.
