As an independent charitable organisation committed to building a healthier UK, we shine a light on what needs to be done to improve health and care for the UK population.
Through our role as a philanthropic endowed foundation, we improve health and care in the UK through research and analysis, grant making, capacity building, social impact investing and partnerships. Our endowment enables us to take a long-term approach, supporting change over time and building the evidence, ideas and capability needed for lasting impact.
We believe we can have the greatest impact by combining action to inform policy and decision making with practical support to make change happen on the ground in health systems, regional and local government, and communities. Our recently launched Strategy 2030 reflects this approach, with clear goals and routes to impact.
We are seeking to bolster the specialist knowledge in our Audit and Risk committee by appointing a new independent member. You will add to the Committee’s collective expertise and perspective through your own specialism in finance and accounting.
This is a particularly rewarding time to join us, as we embark on our new strategy. With the NHS and social care system under pressure to meet people’s needs, improvements in life expectancy stalling and deep inequalities in health holding back potential, the need for our work has never been greater. Your personal contribution will help shape the future of health and care across the nation.
