Hear from two member organisations about InSites:

“The approach that InSites takes is unique because it offers a peer learning network for large organizations to test, learn from, and then adopt innovation. The work is about building a community that collaborates beyond boundaries.”

Preeti Sud, Director of Strategy, Mid and South Essex NHS Foundation Trust.

“InSites is an incredibly valuable community supporting one another to collaborate, test and evaluate the latest innovative solutions to support the services we provide in the NHS. It’s exciting to see the programme expand as we work together to speed up adoption across the NHS.”
