GGI Breakfast Webinar - The New NHS: ICS Series | Estate opportunities | 25 May 2022 | Zoom Conference Call

Last year the Good Governance Institute ran a series of events about future ICS and systems work, and developed a number of briefings. There has been a real appetite and requests for further breakfast meetings to be held on the subject matter. Therefore, we are working on a further series of events and topics that we will host over the coming months.

The next webinar in this year’s series, ‘Estates opportunities for ICSs- the foundation for health and wellbeing in place'

We will be joined by Tony Coke - Director of Primary Care Development at Primary Health Properties, Dr Mark Gaffney - GP, Senior Partner and Chairman of the Victoria Medical Centre and Clinical Director of the Victoria PCN in Eastbourne and Nicola Theron - Director of Estates at North Central London ICS. The session will be chaired by Fenella McVey, Senior Consultant at Good Governance Institute.

The format of these meetings will be input from a couple of speakers on their own thoughts and experience, then it will open up to the attendees for a facilitated open discussion encouraging comments, questions and answers.
