Healthwatch Wiltshire has appointed a new Board to help prioritise the health and social care issues that are most important to the people of Wiltshire.
The Local Leadership Board will be the driving force behind Healthwatch Wiltshire's commitment to ensure the voices of children, young people and adults are heard by those who run, plan and regulate health and social care services in the county.
The new Board is made up of Rob Jefferson, Hazel Dunnett, David Line, Irene Kohler and Andy Mintram. They will be joined by Emma Leatherbarrow, director of partnerships at Help and Care, Healthwatch Wiltshire's provider.
David Line, former Prospect Hospice general manager, said: "I am passionate about, and very committed to, board roles as a means of achieving strategic objectives and real change for the benefit of the wider community. I'll enjoy working with the Healthwatch team to influence the direction and focus of health and social care across Wiltshire."
