Merton Council’s Scrutiny Panels are after your views on the sorts of issues they should review to make sure that the council and partners respond to local people’s needs and concerns.<
In 2007 INVOLVE became Merton’s Community Engagement Network and elected representatives from voluntary, community and faith organisations to sit on a range of partnership bodies alongside colleagues from key public and private sector agencies.
The INVOLVE meeting on 18th April included information on a new grants programme for the voluntary sector, work to promote the take up of childhood immunisation and a roundup of news for the local voluntary sector.
The INVOLVE meeting on 20 September saw presentations on the future shape of GP commissioning consortia in Merton and Sutton, the NHS Better Services Better Value programme and an update on the work of LINk Merton.
