Our learning
We share what we learn so you don’t have to start from scratch. Here you can access blogs, guides and publications produced by us and our partners on a variety of digital and health related subjects.
We also have an inclusive digital transformation workspace on the FutureNHS platform and offer bespoke learning programmes and events.
You can filter our learning by selecting one of the categories:
Mental Health Awareness Week 2024
Working to improve access to and the experience of mental health services for our workforce and the people they care for.
Happy new year!
As we’ve started 2024 we’ve taken time to look back and reflect on what we have achieved over the last 12 months and to look forward to what we want to achieve over the next year too.
ReVise Study – Co-designing and evaluating an implementation model for ophthalmic remote consultation with vision self-testing

2022: The year in review
Our Managing Director, Tim Brazier, looks back on the last 12 months, reflecting on the changes we’ve seen and the work we’ve delivered as well as looking forward to what 2023 will bring.
Climate Change and Health Inequalities
The NHS has recognised both the health impact of the climate crisis and its responsibilities towards reducing carbon emissions. It has set up the Greener NHS programme primarily to deliver a net zero carbon health service. Given the current direct and indirect NHS carbon emission levels, this is an important and impactful ambition but this is not the only area of responsibility relating to the climate crisis in which the health and care system has a part to play.
Developing female leaders in digital health
Minerva is a development programme for women working in health technology or a health and care data environment who aspire to lead. Led by Anne Cooper, former NHS Digital Chief Nurse.
Digital Health Inequity
Part of Inclusive Digital Transformation Week 2022 - Our emphasis on tackling inequalities was driven by the pandemic and what was happening in the world around us, and a commitment to the principles of the NHS enshrined in the NHS constitution; ‘a comprehensive services available to all’.
Inclusive Digital Transformation Week: looking ahead

Part of Inclusive Digital Transformation Week 2022: In this blog we are releasing two assets we hope will be useful for Integrated Care Systems thinking about how to deliver the headline guidance set out in the What Good Looks Like Framework and the Operational Guidance 22/23 around a digital inclusion strategy.
Our Inclusive Digital Transformation Discovery Journey (so far…)
Part of Inclusive Digital Transformation Week 2022: Recognising that digital exclusion is the result of a complex and ever changing set of factors, rather than focusing specifically on individuals we wanted to understand more about how to change the whole system to be more inclusive.
2021: end of year blog
Despite being a small team working under challenging and uncertain circumstances, we have influenced policy and practice by being authentic and passionate about our mission.
Equality, diversity and inclusion
This year the team and I are embarking on a journey to explore how we can advance our knowledge and practice of equality, diversity and inclusion to ensure that we put it at the heart of everything we do.
People Powered Digital Innovation
We wanted to shine a light on a community of incredible digital innovators, who are driven by their own experiences.
People Power - the missing part of ‘What Good Looks Like’?
We have three key points which we hope might contribute to a further iteration of the guidance.
Co-designing Digital Innovations in Mental Health
