The NHS Borders Public Board Meeting tomorrow Thursday June 30 from 9am – 11am will now take place online via Microsoft Teams.

The meeting had been due to be held in person at Tweed Horizons and it would have been the first non virtual meetings since the start of the pandemic.

However due to a rise in cases of Covid-19 in the Borders a decision has been made to hold the meeting online.

The Board which meets every two months say that they are  committed to building on the strong links it has with patients, staff, local communities, disadvantaged groups and other stakeholders.

Members of the public wishing to view proceedings online should contact Iris Bishop, Board Secretary, via iris.bishop@borders.scot.nhs.uk for the Microsoft Teams link needed to attend.
