Research Priorities
Our recent consultation with members identifies that the key priorities for this year are mental health and technology, which promotes independence. If you’d like to get more involved in our work on either of these fronts let us know.
Parliamentary Inquiry
With the re-constitution of the All Party Parliamentary Group on Rural Health and Care session 6 of the Parliamentary Inquiry into systems is set to run. We have a number of key witnesses lined up including the CEO of the Kings Fund. If you like to raise a question or come along in person just let us know. The session is around lunchtime on 28 February.

Coastal Innovation
We’re working actively with partners including the University of Lincoln on the development of the concept of a new Campus for Future Living to coordinate key aspects of the challenges facing vulnerable people in coastal settings. If you’d like to know more please do get in touch.
