Healthwatch Bradford and District Annual Report 2025-6

Over the past year, more than 2,000 people came to us for advice, information or to share their experiences. We published reports on important issues, worked closely with communities facing the greatest health inequalities, led projects across West Yorkshire, and made sure local people's voices were heard where decisions about health and care are made.

This year's messages from our Chair and Chief Executive are not just about looking back, they're about looking forward. They celebrate a year of determination, teamwork and real impact, while making one thing clear: whatever changes lie ahead, Healthwatch Bradford and District will continue to be an independent voice for local people. Listening, speaking up and helping improve services will always be at the heart of what we do.

Over the coming year, we'll keep building on this work. We'll continue to tackle health inequalities, reach communities whose voices are too often missed, work alongside partners to improve services, and make sure local people's experiences help shape the future of health and social care.

Thank you to everyone who shared their experiences with us this year. Every story, every conversation and every piece of feedback helps make care better for everyone.
