The government’s 10 Year Health Plan set out how it intends to transform the NHS and create a health service that is ‘fit for the future’. A year on, are we where we need to be?
More than a year on after its publication and with the release of the NHS Modernisation Bill, the focus has shifted from ambition to action. What does it really look like to turn the plan into reality? What challenges have emerged, where have leaders found ways through and what does this early progress tell us about what comes next? At the centre of the plan are three shifts – moving care from hospitals to local communities, preventing illness not just treating it, and realising the potential of digital technology. But what do the shifts actually mean in practice for those working locally and a year on does it feel any different for staff, patients and communities?
Join us as we take stock of progress a year on, explore what still needs to happen and look ahead to what will be possible if the ambitions of the 10 Year Health Plan are brought to life.
This conference is sponsored by Roche and Abbott.
Sessions will explore:
what progress has been made a year on
changes in the policy landscape over the past year
what the shifts mean for the experience on the ground for staff, people and communities
the tension leaders face between balancing delivering the plan and other priorities
what the future of ‘patient power’ can and should look like
how leaders can unlock their agency to drive change
how local systems have been delivering the three shifts and how to take this further
what is possible if the plan is fully realised.

2025 event recap
The government has been saying for the past year that the NHS is broken, backed by an investigation in 2024 by Lord Darzi that comprehensively highlighted a wide range of problems, and public satisfaction with the NHS at an all-time low. The plan leans into that rhetoric – stating that ‘the choice for the NHS is stark: reform or die’.

National and local leaders shared insights and learnings on the challenges facing the health and care system as implementation takes place across the country.
During the event, we showcased pioneering case studies that are leading the way in delivering the plan, and delegates had the opportunity to join peers from across the system to find out how to move from pockets of innovation to widespread change.
'The conference is a way to remove yourself from the day-to-day treadmill, whilst still being immersed in NHS policy. The set up allows reflection and reframing of issues to enable gear changes in workstreams back within provider services.' - 2025 event attendee
