Pan Westminster Patient Participation Group
A PPG is a group of patients who are interested in health and healthcare issues and who want to get involved with and support the running of their local GP practice.
In addition to our practice PPG we have a PPG for all GP practices in Westminster. The PPG is organised by our federation, Healthcare Central London, and has representatives from all Westminster Practices.
Healthcare Central London is committed to providing community-led care. To achieve this, we need to understand the real-time needs of local residents when it comes to their health and wellbeing. By engaging with patients and carers who volunteer to join our PPG and discussing the services and experiences offered by the Federation and our member Practices, we can make improvements and better serve our communities.
Anyone over the age of 18 who is registered with a GP Practice who is a member of Healthcare Central London or who uses the HCL-led services at South Westminster Centre for Health can join the HCL PPG. We can provide interpreters at our PPG meetings. If you wish to join, please get in touch with our admin team.
