NHS Leeds CCG Annual General Meeting (AGM)

NHS Leeds Clinical Commissioning Group (CCG) is holding its Annual General Meeting (AGM) on Wednesday 23 September from 4.15 – 5.30pm.

Due to social distancing rules, this year’s event will be held virtually using Microsoft Teams and members of the public can join the event using  any device including PC, tablet or smartphone.

The CCG is responsible for planning and funding (commissioning) the majority of health services for people in Leeds

At the AGM the CCG’s annual report and accounts for 2019-2020 will be formally accepted, and people will also hear about the CCG’s key achievements and challenges faced by the commissioning body.

Tim Ryley, Chief Executive, NHS Leeds CCG, said: “Each year, the AGM provides an opportunity for members of the public to find out what the CCG has achieved over the last 12 months and what we are doing to improve healthcare across Leeds.

As well as presenting our annual report and accounts for 2019-2020, we will also be talking about our future plans to tackle health inequalities. We know that in Leeds, like many other cities, there is a large gap between those who have with the poorest health and those who have good health and associated quality of life

Our shorter annual review will also be available and this includes some examples of work that is already happening to address health inequalities.”

Anyone who is interested in attending the AGM should send an email to leedsccg.corporategovernance@nhs.net with your name, organisation (if applicable) and any questions you would like to ask the governing body by 5pm on Friday 18 September. A link to the meeting with joining instructions will be sent out nearer the time.
