NHS

Just as I thought the NHS is not keen on having patient reps, I have worked for many hours over many years sitting on committees putting a patient view for what? now we have health watch they want to take over, and it has to be a director well bless me just why does it need to be a director?, I received an email informing me that I am not able to sit on the group even though I am a registered member of health watch but that matters not, I am waiting now to next week to see just where this puts me, it really makes you sick I have attended at no cost to the NHS I have printed out all the papers sent me with the cost of paper and ink being born by me so no cost to the NHS, will the health watch do the same I don't believe so, as a director  I think would have expenses, I was a member of the PPI forum and LINk and was allowed to claim mileage and paper and at times I could have drawn the cost of ink,  but I only managed it a couple of times, I am insulted and it will take me some time to recover from this.
