This pro-manchester Healthcare committee brings you engaging, insightful and challenging patient stories to stimulate your heart and your head. Each narrative offers a unique perspective, shedding light on the triumphs, challenges, and complexities inherent in navigating the Healthcare landscape. They serve as a potent reminder that behind every diagnosis, treatment, and prognosis lies a person with a story that deserves to be heard.

The panel session is followed by the opportunity to engage and question our panel in our first ‘patient surgery’ which promises to be an open forum for robust discussion on how Greater Manchester is (or is not) ‘putting patients first’. Questions are not only welcomed but encouraged (if you feel comfortable doing so).

Join us as we peel back the layers and uncover what Healthcare in Greater Manchester is truly like, straight from the frontline.
