WHAT IS A PPG? 
• Patients working with us to contribute to the continuous improvement of services 
• Improve communication between the practice and patients 
• Help patients take more responsibility for their health 
• Provide practical support and help to implement change 
 
PATIENT PARTICIPATION IS NOT: 
• A forum for complaints 
• A doctors fan club 
• A time-consuming activity for all

• Influence decisions about proposed new services and their development 
 
WORKING TOGETHER
