LungVision 2026: The Convenzis NHS Respiratory Transformation Forum

A Strategic Skills-Focused Summit on Transforming Respiratory Care Across the NHS - All Convenzis Events Provide 8 CPD Points Per Delegate

Context and Policy Landscape:

Respiratory disease continues to represent one of the most significant and enduring challenges facing the NHS, with one in five people affected and over 850,000 emergency admissions recorded in 2024. Rising COPD and pneumonia rates, alongside limited diagnostic capacity and persistent air quality concerns, are placing sustained pressure on services and communities alike.

Under the NHS 2025 Ten-Year Health Plan, respiratory care is a central test of system integration and prevention-led delivery. As Integrated Care Systems work to embed neighbourhood models and scale community diagnostics, this agenda demands new ways of working, shared intelligence, and digitally enabled prevention strategies.

LungVision 2026 provides a strategic and practical forum for leaders to build collective capability, share evidence-based solutions, and strengthen system resilience in respiratory care transformation.

Summit Focus:

The LungVision 2026 Summit brings together senior NHS leaders, clinicians, and digital innovators to move from policy intent to implementation. Delegates will explore tested frameworks and peer-derived approaches for scaling diagnostics, expanding multidisciplinary care models, and embedding prevention across ICSs and community services.

Dedicated Skill Clinics will provide hands-on resources, including implementation templates, checklists, and process maps, to support immediate application within local transformation plans.

Lessons Learned Sessions will offer candid reflections from NHS leaders who have navigated the practical realities of service redesign, digital deployment, and workforce capability building.

This is not a showcase of what to achieve, but a skills exchange on how to achieve it, translating national ambition into measurable improvement.

Delegates will leave understanding how to:

• Align community respiratory models with NHS strategic priorities to reduce emergency admissions and seasonal pressure.
• Scale diagnostic capacity through accessible spirometry and testing in community and pharmacy settings.
• Strengthen multidisciplinary workforce capability through sustainable training pathways and team-based delivery models.
• Integrate digital and AI solutions for proactive detection, monitoring, and population-level prevention.
• Embed equity, environmental awareness, and prevention into the design of respiratory services.
• Translate policy direction into measurable service improvement across ICSs and provider collaboratives.

What’s New for 2026:

• Morning & Afternoon Skill Clinics: Immersive sessions providing practical tools, checklists, and templates for diagnostics expansion, workforce development, and digital monitoring.
• Lessons Learned Sessions: Real-world reflections from NHS leaders on implementation challenges, course corrections, and successful redesign in respiratory services.
• Peer Learning Circles: Structured small-group exchanges enabling shared problem-solving across ICS, provider, and community teams.
• Action-Driven Case Studies: Focused on the ‘how’, demonstrating processes, enablers, and innovations that delivered tangible outcomes.

Why Attend:

• Earn 8 CPD Points by attending.
• Build confidence through applied, hands-on learning directly aligned with NHS priorities.
• Access frameworks supporting governance, interoperability, and workforce transformation.
• Hear real-world experiences from peers leading successful respiratory service improvement.

Who Would Benefit:

This summit is designed for NHS leaders driving respiratory transformation and prevention, including ICS and ICB programme directors, respiratory clinical leads, diagnostic service managers, community providers, and digital transformation teams.

It will also benefit primary care and pharmacy leads, commissioners, and public health specialists seeking practical approaches to integrating diagnostics, workforce planning, and digital monitoring into sustainable community pathways.

Suppliers, technology partners, and academic collaborators will gain critical insight into delivery priorities, workforce enablers, and implementation challenges shaping the future of NHS respiratory care.
