Very excited to be on my way to #NHSConfedExpo. Lots going on from the Greener NHS including a session I’m chairing how we’re inspiring the 1.4m strong #NHS workforce to take action to tackle climate change #GreenerNHS

‘Because we are the #NHS, we already have a world leading drive to reach net-zero by 2045’ Amanda Pritchard pays tribute to all the amazing colleagues across the system working hard to build a #GreenerNHS #NHSConfedExpo 💚
