Life, Health & Leadership – Building a better, healthier NHS with Leaders with Disabilities.
An event targeted at people living with long term health conditions, mental health issues and disabilities* and are considering or already undertaking leadership roles. Influenced by Disability History Month (18 November to 18 December) we want to help you think about your own history and what this means for your leadership future.
This event will consider our culture of ableism and how we as individuals and collectively can help unpick it. We will consider some of the evidence, national strategies and our personal stories to start a conversation around how we create a healthier NHS.
* Are you wondering if your health conditions fit the inclusion criteria for this event? If it impacts the way you live and work, yes it does.
