The purpose of this leaflet is to tell children:
- Why we collect your information.
- How we keep your information safe.
- What information your parents see.
Why we collect your information
We keep records about your health, any treatment, care and advice you receive and your family
background. This helps us care for you when you come to one of our hospitals or clinics. It is
very important that we have your up-to-date address, phone number and GP (family doctor)
details – if these have changed, please let us know.
You may be asked for the same details more than once, by different people – this is to ensure
that you are correctly identified and that any letter or information is sent to the right address and
the right GP.
