Healthwatch Torbay is the ONLY independent consumer watchdog for health and social care in Torbay.

New regulations in the 2012 Health and Social Care Act meant that the NHS needed to be far more 'patient-centred'. You can see how these changes affected Torbay by viewing our handy guide via www.healthwatchtorbay.org.uk.

This means that health & social care providers have to consult with - and be influenced by - their local community in order to develop and improve the services they provide.

YOU can directly influence these services by letting us know how they are performing via your own experiences. Whether positive or negative, let us know and we will pass all feedback on to those in charge who actually make the decisions. By law they have to listen to us and respond to any of our feedback or recommendations.

So please get in touch and share your story with us via our website www.healthwatchtorbay.org.uk, our Freephone number 08000 520 029 or by emailing info@healthwatchtorbay.org.uk.

Together, we can really make a difference.
