Sarah Ambe

Sarah is currently on secondment to Healthwatch England as Policy Advisor.  During her secondment she is working across the Healthwatch network, sharing best practice and writing guidance for the network on various aspects of Healthwatch’s work.  Prior to secondment, Sarah was Manager of Healthwatch Bristol, so has experience of working with various boards and health and social care leaders.  Sarah is passionate about equalities, inclusion and ensuring the seldom heard voice is included through her work.  Whilst in Bristol this included lots of work with BAME, LGBTQ+ communities, as well as parent carers of children with learning disabilities. Healthwatch works on lots of prevention and public health messages, and self-care is a large part of that, bringing knowledge to patients about their rights and being informed about screening, vaccination programmes etc.  For more information and to find your local Healthwatch contact www.healthwatch.co.uk
