Our next PPG meeting is tonight, 5pm at the Health Centre. If you are a patient at Rainham Health Centre and would like to join our Patients Participation Group - please feel free to come along.

Our group discusses all things health centre with management, staff and members. We do not discuss personal grievances, but instead we discuss things such as “what’s working at the surgery” and “what can be done better?”

Our next meeting is in July, and I will post on our PPG board within the surgery closer to the time. We meet four times a year so it really isn’t much commitment. We are always happy to welcome new patients into our group.

It was an honour for the PPG to arrange this memorial for Dr Abdullah. He is still remembered and respected by so many and now, his legacy will live on in the surgery he loves. A huge thank you to Margaret Mullane for Dagenham and Rainham for paying for the plaque and for Havering’s ICB for all the support they have shown the PPG and the surgery. Lastly, thank you to the current management Operose for organising the food and refreshments for the event and for all their support.

Dr Abdullah "will never be forgotten" ❤️
