Healthwatch Oxfordshire wants to know what it is like living in the Didcot area

Healthwatch Oxfordshire would like to hear from people living in the Didcot area about what it is like to find and use health care and local services.

The county's independent health and social care watchdog has launched a survey asking residents of the town and the surrounding villages for their views on what works well and what could be better.

People can have their say via this anonymous online survey https://www.smartsurvey.co.uk/s/WhatisitlikelivinginDidcot2020/

The work is part of a project by Healthwatch Oxfordshire focusing on market towns, particularly looking at the impact that population growth has had on local services.

Rosalind Pearce, the Executive Director of Healthwatch Oxfordshire, said: "This is a real chance for people living in Didcot and surrounding area to have their say on what local services are working well and what they would like to see improved.

"We will pass on what we are told to service commissioners and providers so please do use this opportunity to make your views known to local decision-makers!"

Anyone who would like to talk this through over the phone, or who would like a paper copy or a translated version of the survey to be posted out, can call 01865 520520.
