Volunteer
The government has recently announced the closure of Healthwatch England. As a result, the responsibilities of local Healthwatch organisations—including Healthwatch Sunderland—are being transferred to NHS Integrated Care Boards (ICBs) and local authorities. Due to these changes, we are currently unable to accept new volunteer applications. We understand this may be disappointing, and we truly appreciate your interest in supporting our work. We will update our website with any new developments as soon as they become available.
Volunteer
Volunteers play a vital role in helping people have their say on health and social care.
Our 24
volunteers gave up over 600 hours of their time last year to help make a difference to local health and care services.
Healthwatch Champion
We have an active group of local individuals who volunteer for us and are committed to improving local health & social care services, enjoy working with the local community and want to make a real difference.
Youth Champion
Youth Champions are young volunteers (aged 16-24), who help us to communicate with other young people in Sunderland, to find out what they think and to find out if services for young people are doing a good job.
It was pure chance I found out about Healthwatch but I am so glad I did. I love working with people and Healthwatch gives me the opportunity to do that.
