Young people’s views and experiences of emotional wellbeing support in Northamptonshire

Posted on 25th February 2019

In the spring and summer of 2018, Young Healthwatch Northamptonshire gathered the views and experiences from young people across the county on mental health and wellbeing services. They successfully achieved 749 responses from young people between the ages of 11-19 years old. The young people that responded valued knowing where to go to get support for their emotional wellbeing. They also identified that support at school and a self-help service were the things that would be most useful for them.

The final report and recommendations will help improve service provision for young people accessing mental health and wellbeing services in Northamptonshire.

Posted on 19th November 2018

The Armed Forces community includes people serving in the Armed Forces as regulars or reservists, volunteers, ex-forces members (veterans) and family members of past and present service personnel. As not much is known about the Armed Forces community in Northamptonshire, Healthwatch Northamptonshire carried out a survey on behalf of the Armed Forces Covenant Northamptonshire to find out more about the health and social care needs of this community. We are currently carrying out a similar survey with Healthwatch Rutland.

Report into the public’s experience of cancer, diabetes and dementia care services

Posted on 27th June 2017

Healthwatch Northamptonshire (HWN) was commissioned by NHS Nene and Corby CCGs to survey local opinion about specific care services. Key questions were incorporated within the annual HWN “Make Your Voice Count” campaign then HWN’s team and volunteers visited hospitals, clinics, leisure centres, shopping centres, colleges, Dementia Cafes, Support Groups and many county events to carry out the survey. A total of 43 venues were surveyed. The HWN website also carried the survey.

Over 1,000 surveys were completed by a wide range of local people, giving clear insights into public views on the specified services and very useful suggestions on how future services could be designed by NHS Nene CCG and its partners to best meet public needs.
