Download (PDF 439.92 KB)Summary of report content
This report was written by Healthwatch Bolton as part of a wider engagement project on neighbourhood assets. A discussion group was held to ask Turton people what they thought about their local assets.
The report was published December, 2017. It is based on discussions with local people. A total of 19 people were engaged with.
Overall sentiment was mixed. A number of assets were identified as existing locally, this is a platform on which healthier lives can be led. There was a lot of discussion about improving support to local people so they can access services.
While recommendations are not made a set of conclusions is given. No response from providers is attached, though this project does not engage with a single provider of services.
Summary of conclusions:
- Knowledge of local assets explored
- A need for more information on services and any changes
- Primary care roles supported
- Wanted support for local people to make use of services
