Cheshire and Merseyside Respiratory Clinical Network wish to recruit two patient and public voice partners

The Cheshire and Merseyside Respiratory Clinical Network Programme wish to recruit two patient and public voice (PPV) partner level 4 roles. Both posts will initially be Fixed Term for one year.

Are you committed to reducing health inequalities across Cheshire & Merseyside to ensure that all citizens have an opportunity to access the Respiratory Programme?

• Can you work in partnership across organisational boundaries?
• Can you represent and be a voice for those also living with a lung condition?

The ambition of the Cheshire & Merseyside Respiratory Clinical Network Programme is that the needs and aspirations of people living with a lung condition (and their carers) are heard and able to influence the Respiratory Programme’s policy considerations at Board level.

Over an initial one-year period, the role of the Respiratory PPV partner will be to support change in the programme using the lived experience of yourself, other people and communities with the condition.

This is an exciting opportunity which could appeal to a wide range of people from various backgrounds, work and life experience. All PPV representatives will be provided with induction and training support during their tenure.

As a PPV Partner, people recruited to level 4 roles can claim an involvement fee for their participation.

Closing date to submit your application is 11.59pm on 31st October 2022.
