Have your say on health and care services
Healthwatch Calderdale is gathering feedback about the experiences of anyone who have had contact with, or tried to contact, health and social care services during the Covid-19 pandemic.
Health and care services have had to quickly change the way they work and deliver services in response to the Covid-19 outbreak. Whilst they are doing everything they can to keep us safe and well during this crisis, there may be things that can be improved. It’s also a great opportunity to tell us what worked well for you.
It’s our job at Healthwatch Calderdale to listen to people’s experiences and share them with those who can do something about it. We want to ensure the positives in health and care during the Covid – 19 outbreaks are not lost and the negatives do not become the norm.
If you can provide feedback click on this survey: https://www.surveymonkey.co.uk/r/FBTW
All feedback will be anonymous and the survey is open until the 28th August 2020.
If you are unable to complete the survey but would like to have your say please contact Healthwatch Calderdale on info@healthwatchcalderdale.co.uk
This work is in partnership with Calderdale Clinical Commissioning Group, which plans and buys healthcare services for Calderdale, Calderdale Council and voluntary and community organisations in Calderdale and further supported by the North Kirklees and Greater Huddersfield Clinical Commissioning Groups.
Ward Forum Grants still available – Deadline Tuesday 31st March 2020
If you have an idea for a project that is going to benefit your local community and need a small grant of up to £500 then please apply. The criteria for the grant is quite varied but it must benefit the community, it is preferred that your group has a constitution and bank account, but if you haven’t you still may get funding.
If you have an idea for a project in your area and want some advice then please contact Tony King on 0300 555 0266 or email Tony.king@calderdale.gov.uk
One thing you must do is make sure you put as much information on the application form, many projects will not be funded due to poor application forms.
The deadline for the 2019/2020 applications is Tuesday 31st March 2020 so it is advised that you act fast if you would like to apply.
However if you would like a grant before the deadlines please submit your application and include why you need the grant before the deadline.
