We created a Patient Participation Group (PPG) Toolkit, in collaboration with Healthwatch Central Bedfordshire. The toolkit acts as a detailed resource for setting up, managing, and enhancing PPGs within GP practices across Bedfordshire, Luton, and Milton Keynes (BLMK).
The D/deaf community in Milton Keynes are often excluded from wider conversations about health and we often hear that their communication needs aren't met by local health services.
In collaboration with Health Innovation East (HIE) and the National Institute for Health and Care Research (NIHR), we raised awareness of diabetes research opportunities in Milton Keynes.
