Do you live in a rural area? Healthwatch North Yorkshire and York St John University have been working together to hear about your experiences of accessing health services. This is part of a project to find out if rurality should be seen as a health inequality.

We wanted to hear from people living in villages, hamlets and rural places across the county.

Our report has now been published. Read the report:
