10 Health Estate Journal October 2019
The IHEEM Council, in thanking the providers, agreed at a recent meeting to provide matched funding for each grant made available.
Pete Sellars, IHEEM’s CEO, said: “The intention is to provide targeted funding for NHS organisations and Company Affiliates who have already invested in apprentices or are intending to do so in the near future, to seek support to
provide training or development specific to the NHS, over and above normal apprentice training. We hope that other companies and organisations will follow suit, and we will be using this scheme as a pathfinder pilot scheme, and in time plan to provide further matched funding. We would like to see other Company Affiliates join us on this important initiative.”
“While at the show, why not also pay our Healthcare 2020 team a visit on stand H2, and hear about a host of exciting improvements and new initiatives for next year’s Healthcare Estates, which will take place from 6-7 October 2020? We promise further innovations and improvements over the coming months, with a larger exhibition with 250+ companies our new dinner venue at The Principal Manchester, and the opportunity for shortlisted companies for Product of the Year to present in the main theatre on the exhibition floor.
