NEW Devon CCG

In April 2013 the NEW Devon CCG website was launched.  It is full of information about the CCG, their boards, local events, patient involvement and much more.

They are constantly adding new information to the site and have already received a range of feedback and suggestions from the public during focus groups about information to add and things that could be improved. 

In October 2016 began a wide-ranging consultation and engagement with the public covering proposals to improve the way the elderly and frail people are cared for locally. The consultation document has been published and is available on the CCGs website.  Copies are available to read in the practice waiting room.
