The Campingland Patient Participation Group has been in existence for many years. Membership is free and automatic to all Campingland Patients. It’s committee consists of a chair, secretary, treasurer and 8 patients all over 18 years of age.

- foster improved communication between the practice and its patients
- help patients to take more responsibility for their health
- provide practical support and help to implement change
- make a positive difference to both patients and the practice
- raise funds to provide items to assist patients as seen fit by the committee whilst ensuring the efficient running of the Patient Group
- where practicable look after those eligible for membership by arranging talks and presentation and by providing information of health and social care matters whenever possible
- provide feedback to, and exchanging views with the representative of the surgery
Committee meetings usually include inviting representatives from the practice, and the Board of Governors of both Queen Elizabeth Hospital and the Norfolk and Norwich University Hospital.
The Patient Group is represented on the West Norfolk Patient Participation Group and any other forum of health and social care services to the local community as deemed to be appropriate
The Campingland Patient Participation Group is a member of the National Association of Patient Participation (NAPP) to appreciate workings of other groups throughout the UK.
