A Big Conversation about women's health

Women across the North East and North Cumbria have had their say about NHS healthcare in the Big Conversation report, published on International Women's Day.

We're proud to say that the Big Conversation report includes contributions from 490 women in Newcastle, gathered with the help of our engagement team.

When discussing women's experiences of mental health and accessing mental health treatment, one woman in Newcastle said:

“There are some very good health professionals out there but the damage from those who aren't as supportive has a significant impact on trust and confidence. I come from a very deprived area which I believe is very much linked to how I am often treated or 'believed'.”
