COVID-19 information and help
Following our previous decision to postpone and reschedule our public engagement work, we are now working from home. We shall be monitoring our info@healthwatchredbridge.co.uk email. We will be fully supporting the Government’s public information campaign and prioritise this activity through our social media channels to raise awareness of how to prevent the spread of COVID-19 infection.
