Barnet residents are being asked to join a new ‘people bank’ to help shape the future of the borough’s health and social care.

Barnet Borough Council is looking to recruit more people to its network of residents who have an understanding of healthcare.

The group is made up of people who wish to be kept informed about services or get involved in meetings and consultations.

Those participating can get involved in as little or as much as they like and can choose areas that interest them.

For more information, and for details about how to join Barnet Council People Bank or one of the Partnership Boards, visit www.barnet.gov.uk/get-involved or telephone Caroline Powls on 020 8359 4366.

Applications should be submitted to the council by June 13, 2014.
