Summary of report content

Five pupil representatives from the Five Islands School Council took part in the Children’s Commissioner Takeover Challenge with Healthwatch Isles of Scilly on 24 November 2017. The students were from year 7 to 10 and lived on St. Mary’s and the off islands. Due to the scope of the Healthwatch Isles of Scilly work plan the students were each asked to put a tick next to the 4 topics that interested them the most. The topics with the most ticks were discussed, with 20 minutes allowed for each topic. The topics chosen were:

  • Medical Travel – escort criteria.
  • Medical Travel – NHS funded travel for the off island leg of a mainland medical trip.
  • Adult health and social care provision.
  • Find out more about the experience and support for people living with dementia.
