Healthwatch Wiltshire has appointed four new board members to help prioritise health and social care issues most important to Wiltshire.
The Local Leadership Board (LLB) is the driving force behind Healthwatch Wiltshire's commitment to ensure the voices of children, young people and adults are heard by those who run, plan and regulate health and social care services in the county.
The new board members join existing members Hazel Dunnett, Andy Mintram, Irene Kohler, Joanna Wittels and Emma Leatherbarrow.
Joining them is the new chairman of the LLB, Gillian Leake, vice chairman Alan Mitchell, public health specialist Margaret Winskill and former civil engineer and a local magistrate, Vijay Manro.
Acting Healthwatch Wiltshire manager Julie Brown said: "We're thrilled to welcome our new board members.
"They bring with them an amazing wealth of knowledge, experience and expertise and we're looking forward to developing a new work plan that focuses on what matters most to the people of Wiltshire."
