Make a difference

We're calling on the young people of Halton to join our team to help make sure the views of children and young people are listened to.

We want to hear from children and young people aged 13-25 who have something to say about the health and social care services they use - and who want to help others get their voices heard. 

Young Healthwatch Halton is open to anyone who wants to make a difference to their community and has an interest in the rights and wellbeing of young people. 

Are you aged 14 to 25 in Halton?

Are you a passionate voice for your community, campaigner for change, social media expert, video guru or just love talking to others and making connections? We can give you a platform to make sure young people's voices are listened to when it comes to developing health and social care services in our district.

If you're in education, planning a career in health and social care, journalism or digital media, we can help you develop your skills and give you experience which will look great on CVs and applications. If you're not, but want to shine a light on the issues that matter in your community or give a voice to those who go unheard, that's great too.

This is a chance for all of Halton's young people to set the agenda and shape the future of health and care services.
