Part 3 - Participation Requests

What is a Participation Request?

A participation request enables communities to request to participate in decisions and processes which are aimed at improving outcomes.

Who can make a Participation Request?

A participation request must be made by a “community participation body”. Guidance issued by the Scottish Government and SCDC's Participation Request pack give fuller details of what support is available to you.

Before making a request

If you are considering making a request, please contact us as early as possible to discuss your request. This will enable opportunities for existing participation to be identified and, where a participation request is subsequently submitted, help ensure that it is appropriate and focussed on improving outcomes.

Whilst initial discussion is encouraged, this does not replace your right to make a participation request without this.

Making a Participation Request

Your request must be made on the standard participation request form. This also includes notes on how to complete the form. Completed requests and documentation can be posted to the freepost address below or emailed to tay.gettinginvolved@nhs.scot

Acknowledgement

Once we are satisfied that all the required information has been provided, we will send you an acknowledgement which will include further details of the process.
