Patient Participation Group

 

Our Patient Participation Group (PPG) meets to provide a forum for discussion about the practice.

What are the aims of the PPG at The Caversham Group Practice and how do I get involved?

The Caversham Group Practice, Patient Participation Group (PPG) represent the patient view within the practice and in the wider health and social care arena.  The PPG is very active, and meets 3 to 4 times a year. 

In 2024 and 2025 the PPG successful campaigned to ensure The Peckwater Centre, a purpose-built primary care hub in Kentish Town, was retained as an important primary care facility rather than being developed as a secondary care site. Visit the Central and North West London NHS Foundation Trust website to read more about the development of the Peckwater Health Centre

The next meeting of the PPG is the 11th February 2026 

If you are interested in attending or getting involved in the PPG, please contact us via our PPG signup form and we will get in touch with you.
