Responding to national reviews | 27 October 2023

As part of its mission to promote good governance, GGI has been hosting facilitated virtual meetings to give NHS non-executive directors an opportunity to share their concerns, challenges and ideas as we rethink the future of health and social care.

The goal is to collectively think about the role NEDs play as part of the controlling mind of their organisations, to discuss immediate safeguarding issues and to ensure we all learn from this experience to assure better outcomes for citizens in the future. If you would like to join this meeting, please email events@good-governance.org.uk.

ABOUT:

We see reviews as a valuable resource – people tell a third-party independent things they would never tell each other. At this webinar we will focus on responding to national reviews with particular emphasis on the Francis Review and the Messenger Report.

Reviews are an ordinary part of good governance – join us and share your experiences and thoughts.

The format of the meeting will be a short 'In conversation with ...' between GGI chief executive Andrew Corbett-Nolan and Daniel Benjamin, non-executive director and deputy chair, Pennine Care NHS Foundation Trust, followed by a peer-to-peer discussion welcoming feedback, questions and comment. This meeting is by invitation and is open to all NHS non-executive directors, chairs and associate non-executive directors of NHS providers.

As usual, the real richness will come from the contributions of participants in this unique NHS NEDs only forum operating to the Chatham House Rule – candid discussions and insights to help share ideas and any learning points.

WHO SHOULD ATTEND

This meeting is by invitation only and is open to all NHS non-executive directors, chairs and associate non-executive directors of NHS providers. Others may attend by special invitation. For further details, comments, questions and suggestions please contact: events@good-governance.org.uk.
