Join Dr Bola Owolabi, Director – Health Inequalities at NHS England and NHS Improvement and Dr Jennifer Dixon, Chief Executive of the Health Foundation, to discuss how the NHS can work in partnership and utilise its role as an anchor institution to influence the social determinants of health, improve health outcomes and reduce health inequalities.  

Bola and Jennifer will set out the crucial role the NHS can play as an anchor institution in improving the health and wellbeing of communities and how developing the anchor role aligns with the strategic priorities of the NHS.

We will share information on the new UK-wide Health Anchors Learning Network (HALN) and how it will support the development of anchors. We will also share how you can get involved and connect with others who are interested in anchors and partnership working.
