A young people's health project wants people in Rutland to join in online.

The 'Young Voices on Healthcare' project aims to hear children, young people, and families' experiences and views on healthcare.

If you're 11 to 25 years old your local NHS wants to listen to you and hear your experiences of healthcare services and understand what matters most to you.

The NHS Leicester, Leicestershire and Rutland Integrated Care Board have announced an online event on Monday, January 29, to discuss their approach to the matter with an open invitation for anyone to join in.

Kirstie Swinfield, from the engagement and insights team at NHS Leicester, Leicestershire and Rutland Integrated Care Board said: "If children and young people's health is important to your organisation, you might be interested in an engagement project that we're currently running.

"We're having an online event on Microsoft Teams to discuss our approach to the engagement, and everyone in welcome to join us online on Monday, January 29, from 5.15pm until 6.15pm."

The team also want to hear the views of families of 11 to 25 years old and staff who provide services to them.

Sharing your views and opinions will help local health and care services understand what young people need, so that better care can be delivered, improving the lives of young people locally.

The Microsoft Teams event can be accessed online.
