Time commitment: 2 years

We are looking for:
people with an understanding of persistent pain and the issues important to patients and their unpaid carers. This understanding could have been gained:

• through personal experience you have of treatment and care provided for you by the NHS
• as a relative or unpaid carer of someone who has used relevant health services
• as a volunteer or employee of a relevant voluntary organisation or support group.

Any questions? Contact the Public Involvement Programme at PIPrecruitment@nice.org.uk , tel: 0161 870 3020

Probably worth keeping an eye on this page for when the CFS ones come up too: https://www.nice.org.uk/get-involved/join-a-committee

PS: Apparently people get paid £150 a day, but have to be able to attend meetings in London (less than one a month).

I hope the new guidelines won't go in that direction...
