Overview
Connect with your peers from across the country
With the NHS continuing to evolve and adapt to new challenges, our latest network meeting offers you the chance to come together with peers from across the country to reflect with other communications leaders on your key challenges and share insight and learning.
Why this matters
This meeting provides the opportunity to step back from the day-to-day and reflect on the key challenges facing your role, team and trust.
Operating under Chatham House Rule, this member-only network will provide you an opportunity to:
- Share ideas and exchange learning.
- hear presentations from communications leaders experts on the latest innovative work in the sector.
- Engage in interactive sessions to ask questions and share your thoughts.
- Have open and honest discussions with peers in breakout sessions.
Great to network with peers facing similar challenges
