In-person event at The King's Fund, London. Joining instructions will be sent one week prior to the event.

The government’s 10 Year Health Plan set out how it intends to transform the NHS and create a health service that is ‘fit for the future’. A year on, are we where we need to be?

More than a year on after its publication, the focus has shifted from ambition to action. What does it really look like to turn the plan into reality? What challenges have emerged, where have leaders found ways through, and what does this early progress tell us about what comes next? At the centre of the plan are three shifts – moving care from hospitals to local communities, preventing illness not just treating it, and realising the potential of digital technology. But what do the shifts actually mean in practice for those working locally and a year on does it feel any different for staff, patients and communities?

Join us as we take stock of progress a year on, explore what still needs to happen and look ahead to what will be possible if the ambitions of the 10 Year Health Plan are brought to life.

Sessions will explore:

what progress has been made a year on

changes in the policy landscape over the past year

what the shifts mean for the experience on the ground for staff, people and communities

the tension leaders face between balancing delivering the plan and other priorities

what the future of ‘patient power’ can and should look like

how leaders can unlock their agency to drive change

how local systems have been delivering the three shifts and how to take this further

what is possible if the plan is fully realised.
