As England continues its road to recovery following the pandemic, challenges still remain for those working in the healthcare sector; from tackling the Covid backlog and bringing services back online, to becoming the world's first net zero health service, delivering new hospitals through the 'Levelling Up Programme' and securing more nurses for the NHS.

Whilst the last few years have undoubtedly been challenging, the NHS must now reflect on past learnings and look to the future, and the delivery of public health services in a post-pandemic world. Now is the time for the healthcare community to come together, review lessons learned and work on the positive changes that can be embedded to build resilience in the future.
