About Healthwatch Salford

Healthwatch Salford is here to help you with health and social care. If you’ve had a good or bad experience, tell us! We can use your feedback to make things better for everyone. We can make sure that the people in charge of NHS and other care services hear what you have to say. We’re totally independent and fair, and we’ll keep what you say private. We can also give you information and advice to help you get the support you need. Our service doesn’t cost anything, it’s easy to use, and it can really help people in Salford and beyond.

About this project

Salford has more people with sexual infections and young girls getting pregnant than many other parts of England. More women in Salford are choosing to end their pregnancies (27.7 out of every 1,000 women) than the average in England (20.7 out of every 1,000 women). Also, fewer women in Salford are using a type of birth control that lasts a long time (28.7 out of every 1,000 women) compared to the average in England (44.1 out of every 1,000 women).

This project wants to find out why these numbers are so different to the rest of the country. We also want to learn about the services that people in Salford use for sexual health and birth control. 

The following questions will ask you about your thoughts on help and support with sexual health and birth control, whether you have used these services, any difficulties you faced, and your ideas for making these services easier to use. If you take part in this project, no one will know who you are. The results will be used in a report for the whole city, and the suggestions will be shared with health leaders in Salford and Greater Manchester.

Please note that this project is only open to the residents of Salford.
