Universal Healthcare

A network of senior NHS leaders, community leaders, and thought leaders, addressing concerns about the NHS’s provision of Universal Healthcare

Universal Healthcare Network

The Universal Healthcare Network at LSBU is a network of senior NHS leaders, community leaders, and thought leaders, who have mobilised to address their concerns about the NHS’s provision of Universal Healthcare.

The network aims to make visible the reality of inequalities in service provision, and work through how best to secure services that are designed around health needs.

How we do this:

  • Amplify & Make Visible: We collectively make this issue visible, through this network and from the power of our own institutions.
  • Community-building: We are growing a community of interest around this issue.
  • Convening: We are convening a learning community at the level of place by working with committed health systems to find pragmatic and practical service models to secure universal healthcare. We are answering the question: ‘What if we design health services with a focus on reducing inequalities as a core design principle?’
  • Resourcing: We are collaborating to establish a ‘practice network’ on Universal Healthcare.
