Build Back Fairer: The essential role of anchor institutions in the North East & Yorkshire
The Health & Care Perspective
Wednesday 23rd June 11:00 – 13:00
We’re pleased to announce a series of thought-provoking events exploring the role of anchor institutions in tackling health inequalities.
This webinar will focus on anchor institutions in the North East, Yorkshire & Humber health and care sector, to describe the key principles of an anchor institution in this context, explore the policy background within which these core principles can be implemented, and see examples of how they can make a real difference for our communities.
It will be an opportunity to learn more about the work of the national Health Anchors Learning Network, discuss existing work across the region, explore opportunities for collaboration and collect thoughts on what would be most useful in supporting this agenda moving forwards.
Audience
This webinar is aimed at those working across the North East, Yorkshire and Humber’s health & social care sector and its partners. It is designed primarily for those who are involved in strategy and policy development and for people at delivery level. People who are already undertaking work on anchor institution priorities and want to learn more, and also those who don’t have experience but who are interested in the potential of anchor institutions, will also find this webinar useful.
