People in the Black Country are being given the chance to share their views on areas in the strategy, as well as their own experiences and ideas to help transform primary care. The public conversation is now open and will close on Tuesday 20 September. Local people can have their say in a number of ways, including:
· filling in a survey available on the NHS Black Country ICB website
· by calling 0121 612 1447 to receive help filling in the survey
· by speaking to your local Healthwatch (local contact details can be found here).
A number of People Panel meetings will also be taking place throughout September, where people can speak to primary care staff from the NHS Black Country ICB and get help filling out the survey. They will take place at the following locations:
· Walsall – To be confirmed
· Sandwell – Wednesday 11 September, Jubilee Park Community Centre, Glebefields Estate, DY4 0RJ, 5pm-7.30pm
· Dudley – Monday 16 September, Brierley Hill Methodist Church, Bank Street, DY5 3DA, 10.30am-1.30pm
