Patient Participation Group
The Aims of the Patient Participation Group
We support the Practice by providing advice & guidance on a range of issues from the patients' perspective, discuss proposed changes to service provision and advise on improvments to patient care.
The PPG meets bi-monthly and is supported by a senior GP Partner and the Practice Manager who attend the meetings.
The PPG has been actively involved in organising a number of wide-ranging health promotion events in partnership with local community centres in Histon and Cottenham. Topics have included Health Benefits of a Mediterranean Diet, Advances in Cancer Research and Diagnosis, Falls Prevention and more events are planned over the next twelve months.
If you are interested in joining the PPG, please contact the surgery receptionist or complete the form via the link on this page.
