In late 2015, our CEO Jagdeep Passan was approached by the NHS Confederation to write a blog regarding citizen engagement. He joins people like Andrew Ridley (Chair of the Community Network supported by NHS Providers and the NHS Confederation and Chief Executive of Central London Community Healthcare Trust), Dr Kiren Collison (clinical chair at Oxfordshire CCG), and Dr Selwyn Hodge (previously chair of the Self Care Forum and of the Royal Society for Public Health) in writing for the Confederation – which is a great honour!
