Conference Agenda

Wednesday 6th November 2024, One Great George Street, London SW1P 3AA

  • Art & Architecture in the healing environment – With the ever increasing pressure on Estate performance this talk addresses the need for basic, and good design as a pre-requisite for clinical space to form the framework of a successful healing environment – efficient utilisation of space and the introduction of The possible of art in your NHS Estate
  • Shifting the dial – focusing on how CHP works in collaboration with commissioners and wider NHS partners to support in utilising the NHS estate and making the most out of capital funding.
  • How to unlock value in your estate
