Patient Participation Group (PPG) Awareness Week 2017

Posted: 14 June 2017

As part of Patient Participation Group (PPG) Awareness Week 2017, the Ashton Patient’s Neighbourhood Group will have a pop-up stall on Ashton Market on Tuesday, 20 June, 2017 and you’re invited to come along on the day.

While the Patient Participation Group's primary aim is to hopefully increase membership of local PPG’s, it is also just as interested in raising patient’s awareness of the multitude of services being offered throughout the Borough; particularly amongst patients who may benefit from the concept of ‘Social Prescribing’, rather than repeatedly visiting their GP’s Surgery in search of a medical solution, to their social need(s).

The Ashton Patient’s Neighbourhood Group hopes to man the stall from approximately 10am until 4pm.
