Message from Frances Hasler, Healthwatch Camden Director

We’ve reached our two year anniversary, and just published our second annual report, showing what we’ve achieved over the two years.  

We’ve worked really hard to become a valuable voice in health and social care in Camden. We’ve worked with many local organisations and met local people at numerous community events.

Camden Carer’s Week

On Wednesday 10 June, we attended Camden Carer’s Week Health and Wellbeing Fair.

We aim to champion the views of carer’s and other groups in our community that often go unheard, so Shelly our Community and Engagement Volunteer Manager, and Peter  our Community Outreach Officer gave out information about our work, and encouraged a two-way dialogue. We want everyone to be involved so that we can understand the issues that affect different communities.
