Summary

Welcome to our monthly newsletter. Please forward this on to anyone who may be interested in health and social care in Rutland. 

Key updates

  • We were thrilled to receive some good news at the very start of 2021! Jacqui Darlington, our Vice Chair, was awarded a British Empire Medal in the New Year’s Honours list, for services to the community in Rutland.
  • We have an exciting opportunity for someone to join the Healthwatch Rutland team to lead on the development of our volunteer base and to facilitate engagement and involvement of local people in our work.
  • We are working with partners to understand more about attitudes to memory loss and people’s willingness to take steps to reduce future risk of dementia. Whether or not you or someone close to you has had memory loss, can you spare a couple of minutes to complete our 4-question quick poll?
