Patient Participation Group - a chance to have your say about local priorities and to help the practice represent you as the NHS builds it future plans.

What is a Patient Participation Group (PPG)?

A PPG strengthens the relationship between patients and the practice, which is critical to the provision of modern, high-quality health services. Especially importaant now the NHS is undergoing profound changes affecting us all.

PPGs promote awareness of and access to local health services and help build two-way relationships between patients and the practice; and influence the development of services by representing patient views on the purchase of health services, bidding with the practice to provide new services or by co-ordinating with other local PPGs to improve wider healthcare delivery.

This is an ideal opportunity to help ensure your views and local priorities are considered.
