Young Voices on Health

If you’re 11 to 25 years old and live in Leicester, Leicestershire or Rutland, your local NHS wants to listen to you and hear your experiences of healthcare services and understand what matters most to you.

Sharing your views and opinions will help local health and care services understand what young people need, so that better care can be delivered, improving the lives of 11-25 years old.

We also want to hear the views of families of 11 to 25 years old and staff who provide services to them.

Are my answers confidential?

Yes. Any information you give will be anonymous. You might have heard of General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR). This is a law that includes strict rules on collecting and using information about people, also known as their personal data. The data collected for ‘What You Saying‘ will be used for statistical and research purposes only. Nothing that the NHS publishes will identify you or people you live with.

What will happen after the NHS has listened to me?

Once all of the information has been collected, it will be evaluated and looked at carefully. After a few months, you will be able to read the results and learn what the NHS found out through ‘What You Saying‘ and what improvements they are going to make.

How will the results be used?

The anonymised information will be shared with people who work for the NHS and care services. It will help them make decisions about how services are designed and delivered.
