Who we are
Our committee is made up of people with lived experience of receiving and providing care, with a wide range of expertise across the health and social care sector.
Our members are people with a connection to Brighton and Hove who provide or receive care (or both), their families, and other people with an interest in how care and support is delivered in the city.
Our members are entitled to vote at our Annual General meetings and join us in steering our work to improve care and health services. If you are interested in being a member, please contact us.
