The practice is meeting with NHS England on the 21st and a decision should be made then. There was only a minimum response to the letters sent out and only the committee turned up for the organised meeting.

86/06.03 Alan met Dr Celia Skinner, the medical director for transformation and told her what had been discussed about oncology at Southend hospital. She asked if anyone had been to see us to speak about the transformation and would we like someone to do so? Alan to see if someone can come and maybe we could ask the other PPGs to come as well. Possible date the 16th October. John will also still continue to chase the SEMC/PEG to get someone to come and speak to us.

86/06.05 The 2 disabled bays are rutted and not well marked. It is a privately owned car park. Ally to speak to Colleen.

86/06.08 A new cleaner started today.
86/06.09 As there are new reception staff it was decided that we should all wear our badges so that they would know who we are. / AU
