VET Conference Bursary
In conjunction with feedback from the organisations that have already signed up to attend the VET conference (17th of November, 10am-4pm), we have identified that there is real enthusiasm for smaller organisations (ie those employing 5 people or less) to engage with the work of VET. We recognise that one key challenge is the funding available to smaller organisations to enable them to participate.
We have therefore decided to make available a bursary of £500 to enable one of the participants in the conference to access future organisational development opportunities over the next year. All organisations with 5 employees or less which attend the conference will be eligible for entry into a draw to be awarded this support.
To register for the conference please follow this link.
Core20PLUS5 Survey
Core20PLUS5 is an NHS England and NHS Improvement (NHSEI) approach developed by the Health Inequalities Improvement Team to support Integrated Care Systems (ICSs) to reduce health inequalities.
Following a series of engagement events, the Health Inequalities Improvement team are now gathering thoughts on the approach through an online Engage-based survey which will be open from 1-19 November 2021.
The survey is aimed at:
- Health Inequalities professionals working in the NHS
- Clinical and non-clinical healthcare professionals with a particular interest in reducing health inequalities – internally and externally of the NHS
- Organisations that support or have an expert understanding of the communities at particular risk of health inequalities including ethnic minorities, coastal and rural communities, people living in areas of high deprivation, plus inclusion health groups (e.g. homeless and rough sleepers, sex workers, Gypsy and Roma travelling communities), people living with autism, a learning disability or serious mental illness
The survey is now live here until 19 November: www.engage.england.nhs.uk/survey/core20plus5
