Healthwatch Camden
We are a valuable voice in health and social care in Camden. We give out information and advice and champion equality for local people. We have the power to influence the delivery and design of local services, and work in partnership with local organisations. We help shape local services not just for the people who use them, but also for anyone who might need to in future.
Description

By volunteering for Healthwatch Camden, you will be using your skills, experience and interests to make a positive difference to an individual, a community and to your local Healthwatch.

As a research and engagement volunteer, you will support ongoing projects undertaken by Healthwatch Camden. We work in close partnership with local community groups to research local health topics and hold events to raise awareness on specific health issues, so you will have the opportunity to engage with the people working and living in Camden. 

If you are not yet sure how you would prefer to get involved, don’t worry. All you need to do is tell us how much time you are willing to set aside, what your main area of interest is, and we will help you find an opportunity that suits your time and interest.

Duties
  • Contributing to literature searches and proofreading of reports.
  • Transcription and analysis of interviews and focus group discussions.
  • Attending community events to speak with local people about the health and care issues that matter to them. 
  • Supporting health events in the community to raise awareness on specific health topics.
