“Healthwatch Leeds is our recognised community engagement partner due to their expertise of working with groups which tend to be under-represented when it comes to research. Working with them has shaped our approach, encouraging a more inclusive and flexible way of working and we’ve seen an increased representation of different characteristics which is crucial when we are developing and delivering research which has the patient voice at the centre of it. I have been particularly impressed with HWL’s integrity and how they approach and connect with other organisations, signposting and working in partnership if necessary. By doing this, they are a true champion for the patient/public voice.” 

Amy Rebane, Patient and Public Involvement, Engagement and Participation Lead, NIHR Leeds Biomedical Research Centre (BRC)

Listening to people who are often under-represented helps shape better research and better care. We are pleased to see how partnership working can lead to more inclusive and meaningful involvement for people.

Listening to people’s real experiences helps improve health and care in ways data alone can’t. Craig from Healthwatch North Yorkshire explains how lived experience highlights everyday barriers and supports services to make meaningful, people-centred change.
