About Sub-Regional Health Planning Committees

Sub-Regional Health Planning Committees provide a forum for community and stakeholder collaboration in health service planning, design and delivery within the region. The committees enable communities to have a strong voice in the planning, design and delivery of services and programs within Western NSW Local Health District.

Meetings are held every 3 months with the option to attend in person or dial in via Microsoft Teams.
