Professional Advocacy Referral Form

Professional Referral Form for Independent Health and Social Care Complaints Advocacy.

This form is for professionals who are helping someone make a complaint about the NHS or an NHS service, or a Local Authority Social Care Service. It can also be used if the person is already making a complaint, or if they are doing it for someone else.

A complaint can only be made if the issue/incident happened within the last 12 months (or they’ve been made aware of it in the last 12 months) and hasn’t been investigated previously.

Annual Equality Report 2025/26

We are pleased to present our second Annual Equality Report, covering 1 April 2025 to 31 March 2026.

As Wales’s independent voice for health and social care, our work focuses on listening to people across every community and making sure their experiences shape better care and fairer outcomes.

We remain committed to challenging inequality, discrimination and prejudice and to supporting Wales’s ambition to become an anti-racist nation.

Thank you to the public, our staff and all partners who helped us make progress this year.
