People understand and value the role played by CHCs in supporting them to be heard and in representing the collective interests of patients and the public. 8 Hywel Dda CHC Annual Report 2019-2020 Our strategic framework To help make our vision a reality the CHC movement in Wales has agreed a strategic framework incorporating 5 key priorities. These priorities underpin our plans and activities. Making every voice count Improving our influence and reputation Building and developing an effective learning and values based culture Valuing our members and staff Strengthening our national voice 9 Hywel Dda CHC Annual Report 2019-2020 Our equality objectives To help us deliver our key priorities, we have also identified these equality objectives: ▪ We will work with others to find better ways to hear from everyone, including those who are in the most vulnerable situations and those whose voice might not otherwise be heard. We will adapt our approaches to reach those whose care is delivered out of hospital and develop our resources and advocacy services to ensure that they are widely accessible, available and relevant. ▪ We will develop our plans with the public and with our partners so that they focus on the things that matter most and have the best chance of making a difference. ▪ We will build on our existing partnerships and forge new ones where working together increases our chances of making a difference. Our membership must reflect the diversity of the communities they represent and support. We will monitor our membership and develop targeted and more inclusive ways of recruiting new members so that we become more representative. 10 Hywel Dda CHC Annual Report 2019-2020 2019-2020 Our functions CHCs have four main functions these can be described as: Systematically Representing the interests of patients visiting and and the public in the 1 scrutinising 2 planning and local Health agreement of NHS Services Service Change Enabling users of Continuously the NHS to raise engaging with the 3 concerns about the 4 communities we services they receive represent and the through an Health Service Independent providers serving Complaints those communities Advocacy Service 11 Hywel Dda CHC Annual Report 2019-2020 Our year at a glance Our advocacy We visited 32 service gave services to hear advice and from people information to whilst they were receiving care 476 people nd Undertook our 2 30 service changes took peer review to place across Carmarthenshire, measure our performance Pembrokeshire and Ceredigion against the CHC National during 2019-2020.

What we reveal to others is a consequence of the erosion that others and things leave on our faces and skin, or from the shrinking of the harder skeleton, a worn-out frame on the edge of ruin. Whether we write, or are written on, our case is no different from the everyday concerns of geography. The constituent parts of the flesh wear each other out: biography.

Scattered farmsteads are located throughout the area and views into the Daugleddau estuary are possible. The Western Cleddau 58 Pembrokeshire Landscape Character Assessment as it leaves Haverfordwest and flows into the Daugleddau sits within the western boundary and forms part of the wider area of estuarine river and associated riparian areas and inlets of the Daugleddau. Key Characteristics The underlying geology is dominated by Silurian mudrock forming a gently undulating landform rising up to a ridgeline that the A40 follows. The Western Cleddau and the Merlin Brook, the upper reaches of the ‘ria’ or drowned river valley forming the Milford Haven Waterway.
