On the 11th September VHS organised a networking event, hosted at the Queen’s Nursing Institute of Scotland. The purpose of the event was to enjoy an international exchange of views and experiences over lunch, in a round table discussion with Paula Baker, Manager of the Braemar Charitable Trust in Hamilton, New Zealand. Paula was in the UK for the Social Enterprise World Forum and had reached out to VHS for some help in building connections with our voluntary and public health sectors whilst she was here.

Ahead of the event, VHS had circulated a briefing paper written by Paula, providing an overview of the New Zealand health sector and its challenges, as well as an overview of the work of Braemar Charitable Trust.
