YOL! has brought together young people aged 13-17 years from across Kingston and Richmond and they collaborate with Healthwatch to scrutinise local health and social care services through mystery shopping and ‘Enter & View’ visits.
“We are interested in how the local health system works, we are looking to understand what children and young people think about it and improve its services.”
