Welcome to the N.A.P.P. website. Patient Participation Groups make an important contribution to the well-being of their communities. Their activities include health promotion, information provision, service delivery, fundraising and strategic input to the practice. Broadband users can click here for a brief video introduction to N.A.P.P. and to the work of Patient Participation Groups.

N.A.P.P. is the umbrella organisation for Patient Participation Groups (PPGs) within primary care and we have well over 300 members. We are able to help with advice on getting a PPG started, as well as guidance on maintaining the Group and making it more effective. Further information on membership can be found in the affiliation section of this website. You may also call our Membership Secretary on 01777 863674.

Primary Care Organisations (PCOs) can also affiliate to N.A.P.P. and receive advice on working with their practices to set up PPGs, as well as other matters such as engaging patients in Practice Based Commissioning and providing training to members of the public. More information is located in the PCO section of the site.

We hope you can find the information you need. If not, please contact admin@napp.org.uk
