Thank you to everyone who attended this year's Forum.

The HEFMA Leadership Forum is the industry’s key event for NHS estates and facilities professionals across the UK, providing some outstanding development opportunities as well as updates on the latest services and product innovations from leading exhibitors. It is also an ideal event to meet and network with sector peers and to listen to high profile speakers addressing topical issues we are all facing within the NHS. You will be able to read more about the 2022 event in the July/August issue of the Pulse magazine, and a report of the closing remarks of our new National Chair, Kay Mulcahy is available here.

The 2023 Forum will return to Stadium MK on May 24 - 26.
