The event took place at the QEII Conference Centre in London. Local Healthwatches from across England came, as well as members of the Healthwatch England team. The day was a chance for everyone to network, celebrate successes and think about Healthwatch’s future impact.

Speakers included Louise Ansari, Chief Executive of Healthwatch England, and Baroness Merron, Parliamentary Under-Secretary of State for Patient Safety, Women’s Health and Mental Health.  The day focussed on the following topics:

  • The NHS’s 10 year plan: what would good look like for patients?
  • The future of social care
  • ADHD & Autism
  • Healthwatch’s use of digital technologies and AI

It was a very energising day and a great chance to catch up with colleagues from across the network. We look forward to the next one in 2025!
