“Really informative day with a brilliant presentation given by David.” – An Appreciation of NHS Finance – Sheffield

An Appreciation of NHS Finance

Many thanks to everyone who attended An Appreciation of NHS Finance in Sheffield today. An Appreciation of NHS Finance is a one day conference I have been running for several years every few months with the aim of bringing together finance staff, managers and clinicians to share some of the important areas of NHS Finance. With the recent large changes in the NHS it was a pleasure to welcome 40 staff to Sheffield The Source for a challenging day.
