Healthwatch Network Awards 2021 - Win for HW Newham
Healthwatch Newham has won a prestigious national award for joining forces with its neighbouring Healthwatch to provide fast, regular and comprehensive insight about people’s experiences of care with local service leaders.
Healthwatch Newham was one of eight local Healthwatch who jointly won the ‘Working with your integrated care system’ category in the Healthwatch Awards 2021, which were run by Healthwatch England this week.
This virtual event celebrated the difference Healthwatch’s 4,300 staff and volunteers made over the past year and Healthwatch Newham was one of only a handful of local Healthwatch to win an award out of a total of 152 across England.
The award was presented during Healthwatch Week – a virtual conference celebrating the vital work of Healthwatch which featured high-profile speakers including NHS England chief executive Amanda Pritchard and historian and BAFTA award-winning TV presenter Professor David Olusoga.
Sir Robert Said:
“The awards also serve to highlight how, by sharing your experience with Healthwatch or giving up your time to volunteer, you can make a real difference to your community.”
We want to congratulate all of the winners from the week, particularly those who won the award alongside us here at Healthwatch Newham, including:
- Healthwatch Barking and Dagenham
- Healthwatch City of London
- Healthwatch Hackney
- Healthwatch Havering
- Healthwatch Tower Hamlets
- Healthwatch Waltham Forest
