About this event

With the COVID-19 pandemic helping to drive the adoption of digital healthcare solutions, patients and patient organisations have experienced both the benefits and limitations first-hand. What are the lessons learned? How can patient organisations play an active role in the next generation health and research?

Our event will include some inspiring speakers from both patient organisations and healthcare professionals to explore the benefits and challenges facing patient organisations as we look to share and learn from each other.

We do hope you will be able to join with us on 2 September 2021.
