Nominate a star
Part of Healthwatch Sunderland’s main roles is to listen to people’s views and experiences of health and social care services within Sunderland and as part of this we hear a lot of positive comments and stories. In order to ensure that services hear about their great feedback we award staff and services with a certificate in recognition to celebrate this.
If you would like to nominate a staff member, team or service for one of our star awards for the difference they have made to you or someone you know please get in touch.
