From May to August 2024, Healthwatch talked to people in Wealden about primary care, social isolation, social determinants of health, and what supports their wellbeing.

We are delighted to share our Rye Listening Tour, One Year On Report.  

Throughout September 2023 we conducted a Listening Tour across Rye and Rural Rother to meet people where they are and capture their experiences of local health and care.  

Throughout September 2023, Healthwatch East Sussex conducted various engagement activities to engage with people from Rye and the surrounding villages to hear their experiences of health and social care.

As part of our activity, we also conducted Enter and Views at various care homes and carried out a mystery shop of GP surgery websites in and around Rye.

This report summarises everything people told us, as well as setting out our conclusions and recommendations for Healthwatch, health and care services and other local partners with the goal of supporting positive change.
