Strengthening West Sussex
We know that a one size fits all approach is unlikely to work, especially when supporting a diverse population such as West Sussex. There is a vibrant voluntary, community and social enterprise sector, with a wide breadth of skills and experience from professionals and volunteers working every day to improve peoples’ lives. In turn this supports our communities which are dynamic and complex.
Our aim is to build partnerships of ‘common purpose’ to enable us to amplify local residents’ voices to strengthen and influence positive change through our work, conversations and reports. We want to raise awareness, share ideas, inspire and invite others to get involved if they aren’t already, because together we build stronger and resilient communities.
Not only did Healthwatch West Sussex give me a grant, but also they provided continued advice and support, and offered a way to link up with other services. We would have been much the poorer without Healthwatch and heartily commend them for the great job they do.
