A series of ‘popcorn’ presentations from Connector sites sharing what they have been doing and key lessons.
On Thursday 22nd February from 2:00pm to 4:45pm, National Voices supported by the NHS England Health Inequalities Improvement Team, SCW and The Health Creation Alliance held a national learning event for the Core20PLUS Connectors Programme.
The Core20PLUS Connectors programme is part of the support framework for progressing the goals of Core20PLUS5, which is the NHS approach to support the reduction of health inequalities at both a national and system level. Through the programme, NHS England funds Integrated Care Systems to recruit, mobilise and support influential community connectors to take practical action to reduce health inequalities in their local communities.
The event was an opportunity for Connectors, participating voluntary sector organisations and representatives from Integrated Care Systems and Boards to come together, hear learning from other Connector sites, network and take part in learning sessions.
This is the recording of session 2, breakout room 3 which is chaired by Mary Hill, Head of Policy – Healthcare Inequalities Improvement at NHS England and is made up of a series of ‘popcorn’ presentations from Connector sites sharing what they have been doing and key lessons.
