Location TBC

This NHS England bitesize session is aimed at NHS professional communicators. Please register with your NHS email address. If you register with a corporate or personal email address you will not receive a Teams invite on the morning of the session. 

How it works: 1) register with your NHS email address. 2) you will receive a Teams invite from me around 9am on the morning of the session not before. Please diarise the session to remind you. 

Working with Influencers? Are we talking national or global or are we talking about local influencers? The people we would like to influence others in their communities? National campaigns type influencers are 'national' so although we will give you an idea of what we do nationally we really need to be talking about local and regional. Does that mean local champions with a platform; staff with a platform; a local Minister or Imam with a platform? What about Youth Influencers? This session will talk about this and welcome your input and comments.
