Comments from the content editorsI found the face to face
meeting in March fabulous. I think meeting everyone
breaks down some barriers and some things are easier to discuss in
person.
It was easier to discuss how to add drivers to the
Wordpress site [at the launch event]. Practical
session wouldn’t have been possible over the phone or
via e-mail.
Benefits of collaborating on a national project include meeting new people/networking. We all
do similar yet different jobs in the NHS and it’s good to see how others work and share best
practice.
Acknowledgements The presenters would like to acknowledge Tracey Prattchet who provided content for slides 5-6.
