A public consultation is being held to give residents their say on how to improve non-emergency patient transport services in Cambridgeshire.
Public meetings will take place at a variety of locations across the county, including Ely Library (Wednesday September 30, 1.30-2.30pm.)
The public consultation has been launched by Cambridgeshire and Peterborough Clinical Commissioning Group (CCG),
Feedback given during the public consultation will be included in a follow-up report, which will be considered by the CCG governing body, contributing to any further development of these services.
A questionnaire can also be filled in, which must be completed by November 19.
Dr Neil Modha, chief clinical officer, said: “This consultation is important in helping us develop our services and to deliver a good quality non-emergency patient transport service.
“We want to hear your opinions, and your answers to our questions concerning a service that is crucial for those who may be otherwise isolated, or in need of patient transport for health reasons.
