Big Health and Wellbeing Conversation- Have your say!

Help NHS Shropshire, Telford and Wrekin improve health and care services.

NHS Shropshire, Telford and Wrekin want to develop plans in partnership with the organisations that provide the services that keep us healthy, happy and well and with people who use these services.

Between March and May 2023, they are holding a number of community listening events and would love the public to join them and share their views.

They want you to tell them what is affecting your health and wellbeing and what things would make the biggest difference to improve your experience of local health and care services.

The feedback given will help us improve services and the wellbeing of the people of Shropshire, Telford and Wrekin.
