The Dartford and Gravesham NHS Trust Programme started in October 2020 – it was delayed through Covid, moved to virtual workshops, and in July 2021, we were delighted to meet face to face at last.

At our last workshop in November 2021, participants came together to review and reflect on the Programme.  This is the team, highlighting the learning they found most impactful before finalising their plans to take forward Partnering in 2022.

“With their collaborative approach, experience and expertise, Garvani Partnering are establishing themselves as the  authority on Finance Business Partnering in the NHS”
