The CCG has a strong track record of engaging the public in commissioning; we have worked with the voluntary and community sector since 1999, with the remit to support wider engagement with the Rushcliffe population.

Patient and public involvement is overseen by Rushcliffe CCG's Governing Body and a Patient Cabinet which is a sub-committee of the Governing Body. Patients are involved in various task and finish groups and workstreams and through our Ebulletin opportunities to get involved are promoted widely. The CCG also supports the 'Active' Group which consists of representatives of each of the patient participation groups within the 12 GP practices.
