Healthwatch Oxfordshire, the county’s independent health and social care watchdog, working with homeless patients has produced a video explaining how one patient participation group (PPG) works to help homeless people in Oxford.

‘Patient Voices…Our Story’ looks at the work of the PPG of Luther Street Medical Centre, Oxford, a GP surgery which specialises in offering primary care to homeless people. The four-minute film includes interviews with patients and staff at the practice, who describe how working with the PPG has brought improvements for people using the surgery.

The video, shot by experienced filmmaker Nicola Josse, was made with a grant to Healthwatch Oxfordshire from NHS England under its Celebrating Excellence in Community Participation grant scheme. It will now be shared widely across a wide range of channels, including social media, healthcare providers’ websites and partner organisations.
