PPN Midlands Glossary

Acronyms can be very useful and make things easier for ourselves; we may make assumptions that our peers understand what they mean. Except, they can make things harder for some who are unfamiliar with their meanings. We were made aware of this by our Midlands Experts by Experience so have created a glossary of commonly used acronyms within the PPN.
