New “Get Your Rights “ [when using the NHS] website for Children and Young People launched

Get Your Rights is a new interactive website which has been developed in partnership and co-produced with children and young people, to support children and young people to understand their rights when using the NHS in an interactive and accessible way.

It includes videos from young people telling their stories about how the rights have made a difference to them, and messages from professionals explaining why they value young people’s rights. There is also a resource hub with links to practical support for professionals. It also has advice on what to do if young people are concerned their rights haven’t been respected, including information about their local Healthwatch and how to get in touch with them.
