Patient Participation Group (PPG)

We are a new group of volunteers, set up to help represent the 10,000 registered patients of The Colne Practice. We are all ourselves patients of the practice.

We aim to:-

  •  Facilitate good relations between patients and The Colne Practice 
  •  Work collaboratively and positively with them to improve the services and facilities available to all patients 
  •  Strengthen two-way communications between the practice, other health care providers and, us the patients, for everyone’s benefit
  • Act as a representative group to support the practice
  • Meet monthly with staff from the surgery.

This year, 2024/5, our initial focus will be:-

  • A patient survey to determine what you think is going well and areas for improvement, as well as identifying the best way to communicate with everyone (please see the links below)
  • To produce a quarterly newsletter
  • To organize a health fair at a local venue for all of our patients at which doctors, nurses and specialist speakers will be available to provide advice and encourage preventative healthcare.

We invite you to participate in our Colne Practice Patient Survey.
Your feedback is valuable and will be used to improve the services we provide to our patients.
