About this event

  • Event lasts 8 hours 15 minutes

Transform Communities. Build Wellbeing. Create Change.

Join The Health Creation Alliance for an inspiring day which offers an exceptional experience, enabling reflection, learning and connection across boundaries and with others who are also passionate about reimagining how to build health, social and wealth equity.

As an inclusive organisation, our Partnership Summit is open to everyone with no financial barriers to attending. However, running an event like this involves significant real costs in terms of staff time and event expenses. If you, or your organisation are in a position to make a financial contribution, we invite you to consider a sum of £120 for each person who attends. To contribute an amount of your choice, please also use the donation option.


Why attend?

At a time when established ‘certainties’ are being disrupted, The Health Creation Alliance is inviting you to step into the ‘change space’ where people from many sectors and communities will explore issues together, build confidence for health creation and fashion new ways of relating and working together.

Our collective goal for the day will be for all participants to see how we can maximize health and wellbeing, create a wellbeing economy, reduce social and health inequity and build a sustainable future for everyone.

Supported by forward-thinking partners and a range of engaging and informative contributors from diverse communities and multiple sectors, we will explore the health creation imperative and how we can all lead change despite the difficulties.
