Care from your GP surgery, difficulties finding an NHS dentist and waits for hospital appointments are amongst the top experiences you've been sharing with us over the last three months.

We're looking for volunteers from across Cambridgeshire to help make care better for people with disabilities, older people and family carers.
If you've got lived experience of using social care services, your experience could really help others.

The new Cambridge Cancer Research Hospital, the safety of patients waiting for treatment and A&E and outpatient delays at Addenbrooke’s were part of the conversation at Cambridge and South Cambridgeshire Health and Care Forum this month.

Three new Directors have joined the Healthwatch Board. And Associate Director Chelsia Lake also becomes a Director.

Parent carers across Cambridgeshire and Peterborough are under severe strain looking after their children and young people with additional needs and disabilities.

Our January meeting includes a report about the pandemic experiences of local families with children and young people with special educational needs and disabilities. We'll also be welcoming three new Directors to the Board.

More than eighty-five thousand people are now waiting for hospital care in Cambridgeshire and Peterborough. Although this may be just the tip of the iceberg and some are ‘missing’ from this count as they’ve not come forward for treatment.

New members are wanted on the Cambridgeshire and Peterborough Partnership Boards. Could you use your knowledge and experience of using social care to help others?

We would like to wish all of our supporters a very happy Christmas.

New facilities will open at Queen Elizabeth Hospital in King’s Lynn early next year. And there could be an announcement on new hospital funding in January.
