Bringing together local innovation, national policy and international inspiration
Join us for the NAPC Conference, a national event focused on turning neighbourhood health ambitions into practical action.
Through our extensive network of highly experienced professionals, the NAPC has a wealth of expertise covering care model redesign, system transformation, health technology, strategy, finance, analytics, facilitation, leadership development and clinical expertise across health and care. We work with health and care organisations in the UK to lead change in primary and integrated care.
Local leaders have told us they need support to lead with clarity, courage, and collaboration in complex, evolving systems. NAPC’s Leadership Development Programme is designed to equip senior system and organisational leaders with the insight, confidence, and tools to lead this transformation—sustainably and successfully. As Integrated Neighbourhood Teams (INTs) become the cornerstone of modern, community-centred healthcare, the need for visionary, adaptive leadership has never been greater.
NAPC plays a pivotal role in supporting the Community Health and Wellbeing Worker (CHWW) programme by providing strategic leadership, practical implementation support, and a platform for national collaboration. NAPC works closely with local systems to embed the CHWW model effectively locally, ensuring alignment with wider health and care priorities. Through training, resources, and ongoing networking, NAPC equips CHWWs with the tools they need to build trust, reduce inequalities, and activate communities from within. By capturing and sharing insights from across the country, NAPC is also helping to shape national policy and scale the programme sustainably.
