Healthwatch Hertfordshire is the independent consumer voice for health and social care in Hertfordshire. Healthwatch is committed to representing the views of Hertfordshire’s citizens. We work with voluntary and community sector organisations to ensure the voices of service users and communities are heard and represented. We also work with commissioners (the people who order services) and those delivering health and social care to improve services. We focus on important issues using evidence to determine our priorities.
Our Board should be drawn from, or be able to relate to Hertfordshire’s diverse communities and places, and we encourage applications from underrepresented groups. We want to have differing perspectives and views of the health system, from any stage of life or career.
We are seeking new Board Members, including a Treasurer, whose role would be to enable our board to discharge its responsibility for the financial position of Healthwatch, seeking assurance for and enabling sound financial management and controls, and our financial sustainability. Previous governance experience is not required, but would be welcomed, and training will be provided to support you as needed.
