What is a Patient Participation Group (PPG)?

The aim of the PPG is to involve patients with the ongoing changes and developments within the surgery and to provide a forum for patients to make their views and opinions heard.

How can I get involved?

Keep an eye out in the waiting room for signs advertising the next meeting or contact Jenny, the PPG staff representative at the surgery.
