Patient Concern is an organisation committed to promoting choice and empowerment for all health service users. Patient Concern is active in all areas of the health service, campaigning on issues that matter to patients and making the patient's voice heard in top level consultation.
Their core principle is complete consumer independence. Unlike some associations representing patients, they do not accept funding from any vested interests, notably Government, NHS or commercial organisations. Nor do they involve anyone dependent on the healthcare service for employment or business.
To make sure that there are no conflicts of interest, Patient Concern has special advisers by invitation and supporters who contribute their time, expertise and experience free of charge. This facilitates a totally patient-oriented approach.
They operate as a network. Contributors include patients, their advocates, carers, lawyers, patient representatives, journalists, ethicists and human rights activists. They keep in close touch with other active campaigning groups run by patients. Implementing their programme relies on the dedication of volunteers and donations, free of conditions, from well-wishers.
