AM encourages residents to take part in major piece of health research

Rebecca Evans AM is asking constituents in Gower to take part in the Health Wise Wales survey.  The innovative survey is a confidential study that aims to track the health of people living in Wales. The aim is to improve the health and well-being of future generations and help the NHS plan for the future.  
 
Members of the public are being asked to provide simple information online via the Health Wise Wales website or over the telephone. By sharing information about their health and lifestyle, their contribution will help researchers to undertake health and social care research and development in Wales.
 
Rebecca Evans AM said, “Accurate information on the state of people’s health in Wales is invaluable to our health service.
 
“It allows us to accurately track health difficulties and inequalities and design services around people’s health needs.
 
“I would urge all residents to check out the Health Wise Wales website and play a part in this important and innovative research. The opportunity is open to everyone - you don't have to be in good health to take part."
 
Residents can register to take part in the survey by visiting https://www.healthwisewales.gov.wales/homepage/ or calling 0800 9 172 172
