VCFSE Engagement Group West Northamptonshire

Join VIN at our next VCFSE Engagement Group scheduled virtually for the 6th of May 2026 between 1.30PM and 2.30PM.

Anne Rackham from NHFT will be our guest speaker discussing Neighbourhood Health – What it is and What it means in practice.

The Kings Fund state:

The Government has put a ‘neighbourhood health service’ at the heart of its vision for the NHS, aiming to help people to live well in their local areas and reduce their need for care delivered in hospitals. This ambition echoes and is committed to shifting resources to community-based services and delivering care closer to home. It was also reinforced in the 10 Year Plan as a way to provide ‘convenient care, at a time and place that fits around people’s lives’.

Spaces will be limited to 25. Book your Place here
