Healthwatch Stockport Update
In July, the Government announced its intention to close Healthwatch nationally as part of the new NHS 10-Year Plan.
So, after 13 years of serving the local community Healthwatch Stockport closed their doors on 31st March 2026.
Over the years, thousands of local people have shared their experiences with Healthwatch Stockport — helping to shape research, inform decision-making, and influence improvements across health and care services in Stockport. Although Healthwatch Stockport has now come to the end of its journey in its current form, the voices, insights and partnerships built over the years will continue to shape conversations about health and care in our community.
The Healthwatch Stockport website for now continues to be an invaluable resource for advice and information.
