Healthwatch Walsall is the independent voice of the public in health and social care in Walsall. We use feedback from the public about their experiences of accessing using health and social care services to work with health and social care providers and commissioners to improve services.
This survey is about the knowledge and experiences of people from ethnic minority communities in Walsall accessing and using mental health services in primary care.
Dudley Pharmaceutical Needs Assessment (PNA) is a report that assesses the current and future pharmaceutical service needs of a local population. It's a statutory document, usually produced every three years that helps Health and Wellbeing Boards to understand where pharmaceutical services are needed and where they might be lacking. This information is then used to make decisions about commissioning new NHS-funded pharmacy services and ensuring adequate provision of pharmaceutical care.
Dudley is currently seeking views from members of the public and other stakeholders on whether they agree with the contents of this draft PNA and whether it addresses issues that they consider relevant to the provision of pharmaceutical services, by completing an online survey. Feedback gathered will be presented in the final report in September.
The full draft Pharmaceutical Needs Assessment, patient and public guide and link to the survey is available at: https://www.dudleyhealthandwellbeing.org.uk/pna2025
The City of Wolverhampton Council is recommissioning domestic abuse services for the city. As part of this, our public consultation is now live.
The consultation is your opportunity to ensure the new services are effective, accessible, and respond to local need, so whether you live or work in the city, have experienced domestic abuse, or know someone who has, we would like to hear from you.
To help us shape the future of domestic abuse services, visit our webpage and simply complete our online consultation survey.
The Black Country Provider Collaborative (BCPC) - a partnership between Dudley, Sandwell and West Birmingham, Walsall and Wolverhampton NHS Trusts - is currently developing ideas to improve planned (elective) care through the creation of surgical hubs.
The BCPC is working to:
- Manage rising demand for services
- Improve access and patient experience
- Deliver more joined up (integrated), patient-centred care
Patients who are currently waiting for surgery, have recent experience of elective care, or simply want to help shape a better future for local health services can find out further information and complete the survey. It is open until 27 July - all responses will be independently analysed and used to inform future elective care improvements.
Share your views and experiences.

Healthwatch know that young carers like you play a vital role in supporting family members or loved ones, but young carer needs and experiences can go unheard. This survey is young carer’s opportunity to share your thoughts about the support available - whether from schools, healthcare services, or the community. Feedback will help us highlight what's working well and where improvements are needed.
