This weeks meeting of the Southport and Formby Clinical Commissioning Group (SFCCG) is likely to be asked to consider the following petition.

TO: NORTH SEFTON CCG

Don’t exclude the NHS from bidding to provide district nurses in Sefton. We want North Sefton CCG to publicly commit to including Southport and Formby NHS Hospital in this tender via a public statement at their board meeting on Wednesday 30th March.

@insouthport @FormbyVillage @ainsdalepages NHS Privatisation by Design Please sign this petition & RThttps://t.co/gS9hBWlsG5
— Paul Bradshaw (@PandaBrad) March 26, 2016

Why is this important?

The NHS is a publicly owned asset serving the public, it is unacceptable that it should not be included and fairly considered in the bidding process for a public facing service.

Who are the SFCCG?

NHS Southport and Formby Clinical Commissioning Group (SFCCG) is made up of local doctors, nurses, practice staff and member of the public, who are well placed to know the health needs and views of people living in the area. SFCCG brings together 19 doctor’s surgeries covering an area stretching from Ince Blundell in the south to Churchtown in the north.

The SFCCG meets in public every two months to discuss and agree work. They make decisions about NHS SFCCG’s work on behalf of all member GP practices.

The dates for 2016 meetings below. All meetings begin at 1pm and take place at The Family Life Centre, Ash Street, Southport, unless stated otherwise.

Anyone with an interest in local health is welcome to come along and listen to the discussions at these meetings. To confirm your attendance at a future meeting, please call 0151 247 7000.
