Join us to chat, share ideas, and get involved with the RQIA community like never before!

Date & Time: August 18, 2026 at 10:30 AM (BST)

Venue: The Mount Business And Conference Centre

Join us for an in-person community conversation where we want to listen to your experiences with HSC hospital and community Trust services. This event is part of RQIA’s ongoing effort to connect with service users, patients, families, and carers across Northern Ireland.

Who we are

RQIA is the independent body that inspects health and social care services in Northern Ireland. We check that services like care homes, home care, dental practices and private clinics are safe and good quality.

Why we are holding these sessions

We want to get better at sharing what we do and what we find. To do that, we need to hear from the people who matter most: people who use services, and their families and carers. You know better than anyone what information would help you, where you would look for it, and what you would want to access and hear about.

What the sessions will be like

These are community conversations. They are informal, you do not need to prepare anything, and there are no wrong answers. We will start with one or two short videos introducing RQIA and what it does in these services, and then we simply want to hear your views. Your feedback will directly shape how RQIA shares information with the public in future.
