We have published our workplan for 2022/2023 which highlights our key objectives and priorities which will be delivered as part of our core statutory duties.
Since 1 April 2022, there has been a new team at Healthwatch Wokingham Borough. The team is led by Alice Kunjappy-Clifton, Lead Officer. Our work in the first few months has been focused on: getting a team of staff and volunteers in place; making Healthwatch Wokingham Borough visible to local residents and getting their voice heard; and further developing our understanding of the health and social care issues local people are facing.
The workplan for the new team has 7 key priorities:
Volunteer recruitment
Enter and View
Maternal mental health
Building Berkshire Together
Jointly plan and present a session on self-neglect to the local voluntary sector with the West of Berkshire Safeguarding Adults Board VCS sub-group
Specialist health support for people with learning disabilities
Review the reports undertaken by the previous Healthwatch Wokingham Borough provider and plan follow-up as appropriate.
