´IN SEARCH OF WELLNESS’, A COLLABORATION WITH ITN PRODUCTIONS

The Action Summit will also see the launch of a partnership with ITN Productions to produce a news and current affairs-style programme about ‘wellness’.

‘In Search of Wellness’ will celebrate the pioneering work of those both within and around the health and social care sectors who are innovating to improve the nation’s health and wellbeing. The programme will examine novel ways of involving communities, people and patients in creating health and reducing health inequalities, roles for IT-enabled involvement in health and care, better use of medicines in supporting wellness, how peer-groups can drive their own care and recovery, improvements to workforce wellbeing, the economic and educational benefits of a wellness-based approach for communities … and much, much more.

Drawing upon ITN’s 60 year heritage and expertise in storytelling, the programme will play an important role for New NHS Alliance in shaping the communication and ideas of how best to address health inequalities and promote wellness.

For more information: If you have a story to tell, ITN Productions would be delighted to include you in the programme. Please contact Simon Shelley, Head of Industry News at ITN Productions, on 0207 430 4810 or simon.shelley@itn.co.uk to discuss your involvement.
