Made redundant, at risk, or you know something needs to change? One day. Leave with a written plan for what comes next.

It's September.

You told yourself you'd take the summer off and look at it properly then. September's here.

The money's in the bank, however you feel about how it got there. The days are yours. And the question you've been putting off since the letter arrived hasn't answered itself.

This day is for you if you've spent years in healthcare, clinical, operational or management, and redundancy has handed you a decision you didn't ask for. You're capable. You're respected. You just don't have a plan yet.

By 3.30pm you will.

What you walk away with

Four things, on paper, in your hand.

Values & Skills. A completed Skills Translation Matrix. What you actually have to offer outside healthcare, in language that makes sense to people who've never worn a lanyard.

Imagine. A picture of your ideal working day, built by you, not borrowed from LinkedIn. The hours, the work, the people, the life around it.

Affordable. Your runway number. How long the payoff lasts, your minimum viable income, and what that buys you in time and options.

Your 90-Day Plan. Written by you, for you, plus the full workbook covering all seven Via Nova stages to take home.

VIA is the foundation of the Personal Exit Plan framework. The morning covers these three stages in depth, each with its own action. The afternoon takes you through the remaining four, Now What, Overcome, Validation and Action, so you leave knowing the whole route.

How the day runs

9.30 to 3.30. Finish bang on. Interactive.

The venue

Accrue Workplaces, The Long Barn. A converted barn, not a conference room. Downside Farm, Cobham Park Road, Cobham KT11 3NE. Café on site, refreshments through the day, and lunch fresh from a local Italian deli, all included. Two minutes from the A3, five from the M25 at junction 10, with parking on site. Stoke d'Abernon station is a short taxi ride away, and taxi numbers come with your booking confirmation.

Who's running it

David Birchmore. More than twenty-five years in healthcare. I started as a radiographer, then moved through clinical systems, medical technology and international roles, working for some of the biggest healthcare companies in the world.

I've quit jobs and I've been made redundant. I know both feelings, the exit you chose and the one that chose you.

After one particularly brutal contract I walked away with no safety net. It still took a few more years to work my last shift. That gap, between the decision and the move, is where most people live. It's longer than it needs to be.

Since then I've built and grown several businesses, sold one, and now I help experienced healthcare professionals build a realistic, structured plan for what comes next, without feeling like they're being reckless. My goal is to help 1,000 of them do it. That number matters to me.
