Annual report template 2022 - 23
It's a legal requirement for your local Healthwatch to produce an annual report by the end of June. To help you do this, use our template, which is available in PowerPoint and InDesign formats on the Communications Centre (Brandstencil).
The template includes a branded design, as well as guidance on how to complete your report, what to change and what you need to include in your report.
Please note you will need to be logged in to see the resources on The Communications Centre. There is one account per local Healthwatch, however if you are having problems accessing your account please email hub@healthwatch.co.uk
Images
It's great if you can personalise the report with local photography. However, we've also added a new album on our Flickr library, with images that you can use throughout your report.
These images are all selected to fit with the new visual brand guidelines.
Extra support
As always, we are running a series of webinars to help support you in producing your annual report.
