We understand that life is busy, so we’re flexible! We ask that you donate whatever time you can to help make a difference and have your voice heard. We usually get together every six weeks or so for 2-3 hours.
Parents and carers are more than welcome to join and support, and we’ll cover all travel expenses, so no one is left out of pocket.
All we ask is that you:
- Share your honest thoughts, opinions, and aspirations
- Respect others and their views
You won’t be alone – the group will be supported by trained UHP staff members who are fully DBS-checked, so you’ll be in safe hands.
By joining UHP's Young Persons' Patient Council you will be at the centre of exciting change!
