RESIDENTS are being encouraged to have their say at a health commissioners board meeting.

Next Thursday board members of the Oxfordshire Clinical Commissioning Group (CCG) will gather to discuss its progress.

There will be an update from the soon-to-be-departing chief executive David Smith about the progress the CCG is making to improve patient care and a report on its finances.

Mt Smith said: “The board meeting is an opportunity for members of the public to hear about the progress we’re making to commission high quality health services in Oxfordshire.

“We encourage members of the public to attend the meeting and help shape health services.”

Members of the public wishing to submit questions to the CCG must send them 48-hours before the meeting to: oxon.gpc@nhs.net

The meeting will be held at the Spread Eagle Hotel in Thame from 9am.
