A PPG is a group of patients, carers and GP practice staff who meet to discuss practice issues and patient experience to help improve the service. It is made up of patients from all walks of life: different ages, cultures, backgrounds etc who volunteer their time to attend meetings at the surgery. There are approximately 6 meetings a year that are about 1hour 30 minutes long and at present are on a Tuesday evening.  We act as a bridge between patients and the GP practice to ensure that patient voices are heard about issues that matter most to them.

If you would like to find out more then please complete the form after pressing the ‘join now’ or call in and ask at reception.
