Llais Neath Port Talbot and Swansea Region is here to make sure your views and experiences are used by decision-makers to plan and deliver better health and social care services in your local area
We hear from the public in many different ways. We visit NHS and social care services to talk to patients, residents and carers. We talk to people at public events, and through community groups.
Our Advocacy Service helps people who want to raise a concern about care or treatment.
We use surveys, apps and social media to engage with our community, and we produce reports on what we've heard.
Then you can help make them better for everyone by telling us about your experiences – good and bad.
Neath Port Talbot Council wants all citizens of Neath Port Talbot to have access to safe and appropriate housing. We have developed this Plan to set out our approach to managing the challenges of homelessness and affordable housing across the borough.
We started our work on 1 April 2023. We replaced the 7 Community Health Councils in Wales and the Board of Community Health Councils in Wales, and we picked up the things that the Community Health Councils were working on.
We have been continuing to support people and communities through our
engagement, involvement with service changes and our complaints advocacy
service. At the same time, we have been learning how to do things in ways that will support our duties and responsibilities, as one independent body.
We are pleased to provide this submission to the Senedd Equality and Social Justice Committee for the inquiry on data justice and the use of personal data in the Welsh NHS.
When things go wrong, raising your concern can seem “a step too far” or too time-consuming, especially as it may be at a particularly difficult time.
But raising your concern in the right way is important. It can make a positive difference to others, preventing the same happening to them and ensuring our future care is better.
If you need to raise a concern about an NHS or social care service, you can talk to us. Our trained, dedicated complaints advocacy staff will provide you with the free, independent, and confidential support you are entitled to.

and one of our team will talk to you about your concern, what sort of help you think you require and if you have any particular needs such as large print materials or access to someone who can sign.
At Llais, we are committed to engaging with communities across Wales to hear from people about health and social care services.
The more people who get involved with us, the better our health and social care services will be – and there are lots of ways to join with us in a way that suits you:
