Healthwatch Southwark: 1 Year Update
Over the past year, Patricia Cuenca has been proud to work alongside Healthwatch Southwark as Community Health Ambassador and Founder of Latin Ageing UK. Together, we launched an important research report: Access to Health and Social Care for Latin American Communities in Southwark.
As someone deeply embedded in the Latin American community, I know firsthand how our voices have too often been left out of conversations about health inequalities. This project emerged precisely because we recognised this gap and wanted to ensure that the needs and experiences of Latin Americans in Southwark are finally acknowledged and addressed by our health and social care services.
