Rye Listening Tour One Year On
Healthwatch East Sussex are delighted to share their Rye Listening Tour, One Year On Report.
Throughout September 2023 Healthwatch East Sussex conducted a Listening Tour across Rye and Rural Rother to meet people where they are and capture their experiences of local health and care.
Their latest report provides an update on the activity that has taken place in the year since the tour and how they have used what you told them to encourage improvement in local health and care services.
The report provides an overview of what Healthwatch have done since the tour including case studies on their work looking at local transport, their project on Oral Health in Care Homes and activity with Rural Rother PCN.
Within the report you can read about Healthwatch’s future plans, including how they are refreshing their Listening Tour approach to reach more of the county more regularly.
Riona Doidge, Head of Volunteering and Engagement at East Sussex Community Voice delivering Healthwatch East Sussex said:
“Our Listening Tours are a great opportunity to go out into our community and hear about our communities’ experiences of local health and care.
They represent the start of a process which enables us to build relationships, gather insight and understand the experiences of local people. This is reflected in our ‘One Year on Report’, which highlights the work that has been done as result of the Rye Listening Tour and what you told us but also how our work is ongoing.”
