Hundreds have digital say on how they manage their health and wellbeing.

Almost 2,000 people got involved in the conversation about digital health.

Healthwatch have now published the resulting ‘Have your say: digital health’  report.

The aim of the project was to explore how local people currently use technology to manage their health and wellbeing – and that of their families and those they support or care for.

Healthier Lancashire and South Cumbria wanted to learn about the challenges people might face when using digital technology, to understand how the health and care system can better support people to use digital tools and to hear their ideas  about improvements for the future.
