Meet Healthwatch: tell us about your care, find advice and seek support

Healthwatch North Yorkshire will be visiting libraries across the county this spring. Come along to share your experiences of health and social care, ask questions, and find information about local services.

You can talk to us about your experiences of using the NHS or social care, ask questions about community organisations in your area, or find out more about the support available to you.

No appointment is needed. Just drop in and have a chat with us.

Your feedback helps us understand what is working well and where improvements may be needed.
