10,000 MORE Voices Initiative

We want to hear from you. As part of the 10,000 MORE Voices programme, we are gathering real experiences from people across Northern Ireland who use equipment to support independent living. Your story helps us understand what matters most to you, and everything you share is private and confidential.

10,000 MORE Voices places people at the centre of health and social care improvement. By sharing your experience, you help us understand what works well, identify challenges or gaps in support, and improve services for others who rely on similar equipment. Your insights directly shape change across Health and Social Care in Northern Ireland.
