Spinney Patient’s Association

The Spinney Patient’s Association was formed in 1995 and was set up to form a link between the patients and the practitioners of the surgery.

We have a very positive, strong relationship between everyone at the practice and the association which contributes to a proactive group of individuals who are there to represent the views of over 10,000 patients. The views of the association are frequently sought when key decisions are required to be made and the association feeds back on patient issues that the practice should consider or be aware of as well as providing information and educational events for the patients. Below are a few evenings we have held in previous years:

We have had, and continue to have, many successful events such as our education evenings and we host an annual Carers Tea event as part of Carers Week in conjunction with other surgeries in St Ives where everyone identified as a carer is welcome to attend. You can find more information about the work carers do for patients as well as more information on the Carer’s Tea on our dedicated Carers page, which can be accessed here.

If you have any comments or thoughts about the SPA, including any topics you would like to see covered in future education evenings, please let us know via the patient feedback form which can be found below.
