Have you considered signing up to our Patient Participation Group (PPG)? We need your support and voice!

PPGs can help GPs to develop an equal partnership with their patients. They can help them to communicate accurately and honestly with individual patients, and with the wider community about key health matters.

 

They can also help to reduce costs and improve services by identifying changes that the practice may not have considered, allowing resources to be used more efficiently. What is more, they can develop mutually supportive networks for patients and the practice, outside of individual appointments.

We have an active face-to-face group who meet every 3 months, but you can always consider joining as a virtual member.

Virtual members will be included on our mailing list and copied into meeting minutes. You would be encouraged to comment and help as and when you can.

Look forward to seeing / hearing from more of our patients!

Member of the PPG will be about during the awareness week to answer your questions about PPGs, look out for our lovely volunteers!
