| Upcoming Episode Themes - contribute and connect |

We have so far published 5 editions of The Connectors and in true evidence based fashion we have sought views and feedback
to see how this has been received by you – and how we could improve
it. It seems that it has proved useful, but it needs to be slightly
shorter and snappier – and we’d very much like more PCTs
involved in co-writing each edition.
The Connectors – The Future
We will continue to publish a fortnightly edition – usually on
alternate Tuesdays. Brief headings will appear in the next New@NatPaCT.
We will be exploring different aspects of a Key Issue in
the world of Community, Patient and Public Involvement over several
editions. In every edition we will also be tackling some
cross-cutting themes.
Each edition will feature input from one of our resident
consultants Bob Sang and Jane Keep, and from a partner PCT with
achievements, learning or just questions to share.
