Double conference day. This time seeing colleagues across @HealthierNWL ICS and industry discussing how we can use innovation to help support some of the staggering challenges for neurodevelopmental pathways (#ADHD & #Autism) - eg some assessment waiting lists up to 5 yrs 😥🤯

Really demonstrating the collaboration required for mission based approach. Mixed panel of current clinicians, nhs bureaucrats, service designers and a former clinician turned transformation & innovation! #dhs #missions @HealthierNWL @claredthomson

@mchisambi presenting on how we are rethinking innovation delivery in North West London at the Digital Healthcare Show #DHS @HealthierNWL @Ldn_ICHP

Brilliant to be with colleagues from across the NHS, academia, local authorities, innovation, charities and more today at the first Innovation Forum for the NW London Mission to optimise care for CVD. @HealthierNWL #healthinnovation

What a fantastic afternoon spent with colleagues from across the sector bringing the NWL vision for CVD care to life. The room was buzzing! #collaboration #networking @Ldn_ICHP @HealthierNWL @LoganJRyan @ChanelleCorena @mchisambi
