People shared their views and concerns on a wide range of topics, including health, care, mental health, wellbeing, and wider concerns both now and for the future.Across Cheshire, we received 2,430 responses to our Healthwatch Cheshire Health and Wellbeing during Coronavirus survey between May 2020 and 23rd March 2021 (1,192 from Cheshire West and Chester).This equates to over 9,000 individual comments.Breaking information down to a Care Communitylevel, this follow-up report covers the period up until the anniversary of the first lockdown announcement, and provides further insight into how people have coped during the pandemic, changes that may have occurred in relation to accessing services, and any concerns people have about the current situation and the future.The findings of this survey help to provide up to date information to partners including Local Authorities, NHS Cheshire Clinical Commissioning Group (CCG), Hospital Trusts, voluntary sector organisations, the Care Quality Commission and Healthwatch England.Our initial reports based upon our findings from the Healthwatch Cheshire Health and Wellbeing During Coronavirus survey were published earlier in the year, and covered the period between May 2020 and 15th October 2020.
