AphA NENC End-of-Year Conversation & Community Gathering

Join the Association of Professional Healthcare Analysts (AphA) North East and North Cumbria branch for an open and welcoming conversation about our community — who we are, what we do, and what we could become together.

We know budgets are tight and time is precious. That’s why we want to make this relaxed get-together session simple, meaningful, and human — a space to reconnect with peers, share ideas, and explore how AphA can continue to support data and analytics professionals across our region through networking, mentorship, and professional registration.

Whether you’re an existing member, curious about joining, or just passionate about improving the way we use data in health and care, you’re warmly invited.

We’ll keep the atmosphere light and inclusive with refreshments and conversation — more “winter gathering” than formal meeting.

You’ll have the chance to:

• Share what matters most to you in your professional journey
• Influence what AphA NENC focuses on in 2026
• Discover opportunities for mentorship and professional registration
• Connect with peers and celebrate another year of progress

Who should attend:
Anyone working with or interested in data and analytics in health and care; from analysts to leaders, students to clinicians, and everyone in between.
