The key role of anchor institutions is to benefit their local community by enhancing social determinants of health and reducing inequalities.

In order to meaningfully influence the health of the local population, anchor organisations need to be able to measure their progress.

At our event, we shared learnings on how to best measure, analyse then make good decisions on your anchor work. Participants explored the key principles of anchor measurement, how measurement can be used in their organisations and how this might differ at different levels of the system.

We also shared a brand new HALN product on measurement, which you can download here or from our resources page.

We asked participants to share approaches, practices or case studies on how to best measure, analyse then make good decisions on your anchor work, and we’re keen to keep doing this.

If you’ve got ideas to share, please use this form to tell us about them.

Driven by Data Presentations

As part of our event, we recorded two presentations. The first is of a HALN colleague explaining our latest learning product on data and measurement, and the second is of Kevin Garrod, explaining how Mid and South Essex NHS Foundation Trust forefront data in their anchor programme.
