Overview

Explore the issues that matter most

At a time of reform for the NHS and wider health and care landscape, this meeting offers a timely opportunity to connect with chairs and chief executives from NHS trusts to discuss key priorities, share learning and discuss common challenges.

Why this matters

This forum is provides a valuable safe space to explore shared challenges and gain the latest insights on national developments. 

Operating under Chatham House Rule, this member-only forum will provide you an opportunity to:

  • Hear from government and national body leaders on key issues affecting your role and its requirements.
  • Participate in professional development sessions with experts, with the opportunity to influence future national policy.
  • Share ideas, exchange learning and hear case studies of innovative work being done across the sector. 
  • Engage in interactive sessions to ask questions and share your thoughts.
  • Have open and honest discussions with peers in breakout sessions.

This is one of the best meetings I have been to. The reason was twofold. Excellent presenters and interesting subjects. And second a really strong group of delegates.
