In November 2021, the Civic University Network and the NHS Confederation published a report exploring the critical relationship between universities and the NHS, and their collective role in contributing to their local society and economy. This report was intended to guide university and NHS leaders across the UK as they sought to reimagine and reinvigorate university and NHS relationships through a period of sustained change – co-creating a renewed, post-pandemic partnership that puts place first.
This joint Civic University Network and NHS Confederation webinar heard from universities and NHS leaders at different stages of embedding health within their Civic University Agreements. We heard about the role that health – in all its forms – plays in these renewed partnerships and explore the typical areas of university-NHS collaboration, why they were selected and the mechanics of collaboration.
