You can help make a difference by supporting Share for Better Care Week, which starts on 24 February 2025.
Whether you work in health or social care or receive support from them, you can play your part by encouraging others to give a few minutes of their time to share feedback about their care.
What will happen during the week?
Many people lead busy lives. Yet, they are often willing to take some time to share their care experiences – especially if it can improve health services.
Share for Better Care Week shows how everyone can turn everyday moments into opportunities for change. Whether you're waiting for the kettle to boil or catching a bus, take a moment to share your care experience – whether good or bad. Your feedback, whatever it may be, helps drive improvements in health and care.
When you speak up about your healthcare experiences, you help services understand what works and what needs improving. Plus, your involvement encourages others in your community to share their voices too.
