Who are Youth Out Loud!?
YOL! has brought together a group of young people aged 13-17 years from across Kingston and Richmond. They collaborate with Healthwatch to scrutinise local healthcare services through video-making, mystery shopping and ‘Enter+View’ visits.
Reports with recommendations are then shared with Healthwatch England via Healthwatch Kingston as part of our existing governance structures. An example is where members of YOL! completed the ‘15 Steps Challenge’ at Kingston Hospital. This identified some quick win improvements for patients and NHS hospital staff. You can read more HERE.
