To give patients and the public a voice and ensure their views are acted upon, North West Ambulance Service (NWAS) has established a Patient and Public Panel.

Made up of representatives from local communities, the panel offers meaningful opportunities to influence improvements in NWAS’ emergency, patient transport and 111 services.

Varying levels of participation enable people to get involved in a way that suits them best, depending on the amount of time and level of interest they have. It can even be done virtually!

Anyone who lives in Greater Manchester, Merseyside, Cheshire, Glossop (Derbyshire), Lancashire or Cumbria can apply to join.

Applications are welcome from people over the age of 16 from all backgrounds, beliefs, cultures and circumstances to ensure the panel is representative of the communities served by North West Ambulance Service.
