How can I get involved?

Community involvement is at the heart of the work of the Community Health & Care Partnership (CHCP).  The Public Partnership Forum (PPF) is the main way of making this happen.  The overall aim of the PPF is to enable Inverclyde CHCP to develop and maintain an effective and formal dialogue with the local community paying particular attention to those who could be socially excluded or face discrimination when accessing services.

Inverclyde PPF builds upon the work of existing community involvement and engagement structures such as 'Your Voice' Inverclyde Community Care Forum Stakeholders Network and also voluntary organisations like CVS Inverclyde.

There are ways you can be involved:-

• Join the virtual network of many interested people which any Inverclyde resident/group can become a member of.
• Join the PPF Executive Group (approx 15-20 members).
• Join the 'Your Voice' Stakeholder Network (this makes you a PPF Network member as well).
• If you are a voluntary community organisation, join the CVS Inverclyde Voluntary Health Network. 

If you wish to become a part or would like to find out more about the PPF please contact Derrick Pearce, Planning & Performance Manager on Tel: 01475 558863.
