Led by Healthwatch Warrington, Virtual Voices provides Warrington residents with a unique opportunity to offer their opinions and provide constructive feedback on health and social care services in our town.

Our Enter & View programme is focusing this year on GP Practices. We want to hear YOUR opionions on your practice and help us build our list of practices to vist.

Healthwatch Warrington had their Virtual Annual Meeting on the 6th October, If you missed it you can catch up on events here.

Mental health problems exist in our lives, families, workplaces and communities, impacting everyone. Mental health problems can affect anyone, any day of the year, but World Mental Health day (10/10) is a great day to show your support for better mental health and start looking after your own wellbeing.

We hold regular meetings with our Committee in public where we discuss what we've been hearing from the public as well as our organisational direction and progress on projects.

Healthwatch Warrington is your local health and social care champion. From North to South Warrington and everywhere in between, we make sure NHS leaders and other decision makers hear your voice and use your feedback to improve care.
