​

The role of lay PPIP members is to:

​

•     Meet with the Programme Manager and/or Programme Leads at Steering Group Meetings on a

           quarterly basis over a12-month period.

​

•     Offer a patient and/or public perspective on the overall aims and objectives of the Programme.

​

•     Exchange ideas, and offer assistance with internal assessment and recruitment to the Programme.

​

•     Assist with recruitment of volunteers to assist with Programme delivery and development for

           individual semesters.

​

​Lay PPIP members do not need to be a patient, or have a training or teaching background. They are required to attend four PPIP meetings each year, as well as meetings of the Steering Group, if possible.

​

At the first meeting of the PPIP, members were asked to sign a Confidentiality Agreement to ensure effective governance of the teaching programme.
