Want to work with us?
People's views come first - especially those who find it hardest to be heard. We champion what matters to you and work with others to find ideas that work. We are independent and committed to making the biggest difference to you.
NHS Community Participation Group Volunteer Role
We are working with NHS Cambridgeshire & Peterborough (also known as the Integrated Care Board or ICB) to recruit local people to join a new NHS Community Participation Group.
We are recruiting 8-10 local people to share lived experiences and local voices. Your insight will help to influence priority areas for your local NHS to focus on. You’ll help review NHS service proposals, offer insight into how changes might affect different people and communities, and advise on how the NHS can better involve and engage local people in meaningful, inclusive ways.
If you live in Cambridgeshire, Peterborough or Royston, this opportunity is for you! We welcome hearing from people with diverse backgrounds including young people, carers, disabled people and ethnic minorities.
- You will attend the NHS Community Participation Group (six meetings a year), contribute your views and connect with your local community.
- As a guide, you can expect to spend approximately two hours for each formal meeting, plus additional time for preparation and debriefing.
What you’ll receive
You’ll influence decision-making and get £20/hour for formal meetings, and travel expenses. Training is provided by Healthwatch.
Closing date: Friday 11th July 2025.
