Women’s Health Plan - phase two development: short life working group

Overview

This group was established in February 2024 to work together to inform and develop the next phase of the Women’s Health Plan

Building on the progress of the Women’s Health Plan 2021 to 2024, the group will:

  • share their expertise to inform the next phase
  • identify gaps in the provision of services, consider existing areas of best practice and actions to address these gaps
  • engage with their organisations and networks to support the development of the next phase

It is anticipated that this group will meet on four occasions to meet the needs of the programme deliverables.
