The organisation, which provides a voice for patients, carers and service users of both health and social care services, faces a budget cut of up to 30 per cent over the next two years.

“It is particularly unfortunate that this proposed cut comes at a time when it is more important than ever that people are able to speak up about the services they receive,” said Mr Pidgeon.

“However, Healthwatch is determined to continue to be a powerful voice for the people of Nottinghamshire.”
