Aqua is proud to host the NHS Quest Network.
NHS Quest is the ‘go to’ place for action-orientated, ambitious and committed network members who want to learn and develop together, share challenges, and test innovative solutions to provide the best care possible for patients and staff.
The network provides valuable time for Chief Executives and Board level leaders to pause and think about personal leadership development, their own resilience, and how to use their collective power and influence to achieve transformational change.
