Healthwatch Bracknell Forest, Healthwatch Slough, and Healthwatch Windsor, Ascot and Maidenhead spoke to 580 women as part of this project to understand their experiences of local NHS women’s health services (excluding maternity care).

Out of these, 507 women completed a survey, and 73 took part in focus groups. These focus groups specifically aimed to hear from women of Asian heritage, whose voices were underrepresented in the national Women’s Health Strategy survey.
