Governing Body Meetings

Please register your attendance

The CCG’s Governing Body meets at least four times a year, usually bi-monthly.  The main function of the Governing Body is to ensure that the CCG has appropriate arrangements in place for ensuring that it functions effectively, efficiently and economically.

Our Governing Body meetings are held in public and you would be welcome to attend in order to listen to the business being discussed and to have the opportunity to ask questions relating to the items on the agenda.

In order to ensure that appropriate seating is provided, please register your attendance (informing us of any special requirements).  Please contact:

Mags Wells, Governance Administrator Tel: 0191 371 3224 Email: margaret.wells1@nhs.net

Please note NHS County Durham CCG came into existence on 1 April 2020

Papers from the Governing Body meetings of our predecessor organisations – NHS Durham Dales, Easington and Sedgefield CCG and NHS North Durham CCG – are available on our legacy section.
