About this network

The Network meets bi-monthly to support the West Midlands Improvement Programme providing information, improvement and best practice sharing for activists across the region. It is also concerned with:

  • strategic workforce planning
  • growing and developing the workforce to meet future demand
  • enhancing the use of technology
  • developing the wellbeing of the workforce
  • building and enhancing social justice in the workforce.

The Network is sponsored by Hilary Hall, director, community wellbeing, Herefordshire Council, co-chaired by Andrew Jepps, Staffordshire Council and Kerry McCrossan, assistant director of adult social care, Worcestershire County Council and supported by Lynne Bowers, Workforce Lead, WM ADASS.
