Why should I become a member of the Patient Information Forum?

The Patient Information Forum (www.pifonline.org.uk) is the only UK organisation that exists to raise the standard of consumer health information (CHI) and to represent and serve the needs of professionals who produce and provide it. 

Our members work in all parts of the UK in a wide range of roles that involve communicating with patients and the public about their health.  Membership of PiF is diverse and covers all sectors and all levels of influence. 


Our Purpose


We raise standards

PiF provides advice, guidance and training. We develop and promote quality standards for producing and appraising information, and provide tools to enable health information professionals to do their jobs.

We spread good practice
Our members share their expertise and experience, and support each other.  We provide opportunities for our members to discuss the key issues and find solutions.  We act as a catalyst for partnership working between organisations across the public, voluntary and private sectors to raise standards.

We are a strong collective, independent voice

We speak up for the people and organisations that produce and provide health information for patients and the public.  We champion the importance of high quality information and raise the issues that are important to information producers, providers and users with policy makers.   We seek to gather and share the evidence of the importance of information to health outcomes.
