Chance to virtually meet the health board

5:20pm Monday 15th October 2012 in News

A virtual ‘Meet the Health Board’ event tomorrow (Tuesday) will allow people who can’t attend local meetings to learn more about Hywel Dda Health Board’s consultation and ask questions.

People are invited to visit Hywel Dda Health Board’s Facebook site between 3pm and 4pm on Tuesday.

Information about Your Health Your Future – Consulting Our Communities will be signposted and there will be an opportunity to ask questions, which will be answered by senior executives or clinicians.

Director of corporate services Chris Wright said: “There are various ways in which members of the public can get involved in our consultation, including using the online resource or attending one of the many events we are holding.

“The virtual meet the health board, similar to the live tweeting we did at the larger public meetings, allows people who can’t make it to our events to feel part of the debate.

“We know a large proportion of our local population are online so this provides a unique opportunity for them to get involved.”
