Comments and Complaints

Tell us what you think

Why your views are important to us..

The city council's social care services are here to support the people of Stoke-on-Trent.  So we want to make sure that the services we provide are meeting your needs.  Listening to complaints, comments and compliments is one way we make sure that we are providing quality services.  So that is why we encourage people to tell is what they think.

If you are unhappy, we promise to listen and consider how we can improve things for you or for other people in similar circumstances.  Making a comment or a complaint will not disadvantage you in any way or put your services at risk.
