All Convenzis Events Provide 8 CPD Points Per Delegate

Transforming Care Outside Hospitals with Neighbourhood Teams

The NHS is at a pivotal moment. Hospitals are facing record-breaking demand, long waiting times, and increasing workforce pressures, while a large proportion of care, particularly for chronic conditions, rehabilitation, and mental health, could be more effectively delivered in community settings. Shifting care closer to home is no longer optional; it is essential for improving patient outcomes and system resilience.

The NHS 10-Year Plan marks a strategic pivot towards preventative, digitally enabled, and community-focused services. Integrated Care Systems are being restructured, and the development of Neighbourhood Health Centres is creating a tangible framework for operational change.

Summit Focus:

The NHTeams 2026: The Convenzis Neighbourhood Teams Conference is a premier event for sharing best practices and innovations, designed to help NHS professionals move from awareness to applied implementation. Delegates will gain hands-on frameworks, tested delivery models, and peer-derived insights on embedding safe, equitable, and sustainable transformation within their services.

Dedicated Skill Clinics provide practical tools, checklists, and implementation templates for designing, funding, and operating Neighbourhood Health Centres and extended-access hubs. Lessons Learned Sessions offer candid reflections from NHS leaders on real-world challenges, including workforce alignment, funding shifts, and patient flow redesign.

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

This year’s event is structured around clear outcomes. Delegates will leave understanding:

• Service Redesign Alignment: Understanding service redesign in line with the NHS 10-Year Plan
