What You Told Us

Between May and October 2024, we asked nearly 7,000 people in Gwent the question: What’s important for you to feel healthy?

We spoke with all sections of society in Gwent including women’s groups, refugees, people with mental ill- health, and our partners.

Responses included wanting to have meaningful conversations with their healthcare provider and be treated with dignity, to the importance of ensuring that everyone of all needs and abilities can easily access Health Board sites and services. People also said they wanted their healthcare provider to understand and respect their personal background and circumstances – and the importance of accessing care as soon as possible in order to prevent further problems.
