Description

Barnsley Metropolitan Borough Council (the Council) is looking to commission a contract for the provision of Healthwatch Barnsley. Healthwatch is the independent consumer champion for health and social care. Healthwatch should be the voice of the community and aim to influence services in direct response to feedback from local people.

Healthwatch Barnsley must be highly visible and easily accessible to all individuals within the Barnsley borough. They will be represented on a number of strategic groups e.g. Barnsley Health and Wellbeing Board, and the Integrated Care Delivery Board/Partnership and as part of the South Yorkshire Integrated Care System, to influence key decisions and offer direct representation of the local community.
