Community Voices Matter - the home of HWNN

Community Voices Matter is an independent charity giving people across Nottingham and Nottinghamshire a stronger voice in shaping the local health and care services they use every day.
 
We are the home of Healthwatch Nottingham and Nottinghamshire (http://hwnn.co.uk), building on years of local insight, engagement and community listening. Our role is to listen to people’s experiences, especially those whose voices are often underrepresented, and use what we hear to influence change.

We work with local communities, service providers, partners and decision-makers to turn real experiences into evidence, insight and action. By sharing what people tell us, we help highlight what is working well, identify where services need to improve, and support fairer, more accessible and more inclusive services.

We believe that everyone should have the opportunity to speak up, be heard and help shape the services that affect their lives.
