#SpeakUp - grants available to help local voices be heard

News - 4 January 2018

Healthwatch Sheffield have launched #SpeakUp Grants aimed at local groups to enable them to run projects that help local people share their experiences of health and care services in Sheffield.

Most people will have used health and social care services at some point in their life – whether it’s a visit to your doctor, pharmacist, optician, hospital, care home or received care at home.

Margaret Kilner, Chief Officer for Healthwatch Sheffield said “the #SpeakUp grants program is another opportunity for people to make their voices heard – whether the experience changed life for the better, or they have a burning idea that they’re convinced will improve the care provided in the city. We look forward to hearing from groups who have innovative ideas on how they can make this happen”.
