Healthwatch: Volunteering Opportunities

We have two exciting and ongoing roles: Community Listeners and Dignity Champions.

Community Listeners are out and about in Hammersmith & Fulham, Kensington & Chelsea and, Westminster conducting interviews and surveys to gather views, and representing Healthwatch at local events. Dignity Champions visit health and care services, such as care homes, to understand the experiences of those who are staying there and their visitors.

You can also contribute to our work in many different ways by taking an action eg writing a story for our blog, helping at a stall or distributing leaflets for an event in your local area! If you would like to get involved, please get in touch with Eva at Eva.Psychrani@healthwatchcentralwestlondon.org
