PATIENT PARTICIPATION GROUP (PPG)

Welcome from the Chairman

Like most GP practices, Queen Edith’s has an active PPG, which complements the work of the Practice. We have representatives from all sections of the local community and act to foster constructive suggestions and proposals, designed to benefit the primary care services provided by the Practice, and as a sounding board for communication between the patient population and the medical teams.

If you would like to make a contribution or if you think we could do things better and can spare a modest amount of time, we would be delighted to hear from you.

For more information see: An Introduction to the Patient Participation Group - 2018.pdf

AGM (Annual General Meeting)

This years' AGM will be held on Weds 21st November 2018 - all patients of the practice are invited to attend. For further details please click below:
