The NHS White Paper 2010 'Liberating the NHS' places a statutory requirement on Local Authorities to transform their LINks organisations into a HealthWatch service with effect from 1st of October 2012. As part of this transition, the Local Authority and NHS Leicester City require an impartial evaluation of Leicester LINk.
The evaluation will be based on the views and perceptions of those people and organisations with an interest in LINk's work including stakeholders, members of LINk, patients and the general public.
Commenting on Agencia's appointment, Agencia's project Manager, Graham Barnett said "We are pleased to be able to support Leicester LINk in evaluating their current service. Our strong track record of working with Local Authorities, trusted impartiality, and expertise in consultation and engagement, means that we can deliver robust findings that will be helpful in informing the transition to HealthWatch."
If you are interested in finding out more about this work, or represent a LINk and would like to discuss how Agencia might be able to support you in your transition to HealthWatch, please contact:
