Lunch and Learn: developing NHS climate adaptation plans
Tuesday 30 September, 12pm
Preparing the healthcare system for growing climate risk
Join Mott MacDonald’s expert team for a Lunch and Learn designed to help NHS organisations design, develop and implement best-practice plans in line with the new Climate Adaptation Framework.
On Tuesday 30 September at 12pm, Mott MacDonald invites you to join a Lunch and Learn webinar for NHS professionals with an interest in climate adaptation and resilience for the healthcare sector.
The webinar will be led by Mott MacDonald’s expert cross-functional teams across climate resilience and buildings and health:
- Rob Neave - managing healthcare consultant, UK
- Jonny Krzyzosiak - climate resilience technical excellence lead, UK
- Sidney Niogret - graduate consultant, UK
- Thomas Bromley - Senior climate resilience consultant, UK
The impacts of climate change are placing a significant strain on the UK's healthcare system. From worsening climate shocks, such as increasingly severe storms, through to chronic impacts like prolonged periods of higher temperatures, the facilities and operational resources the NHS depends on are at risk. Successful adaptation is vital to protect patient outcomes now and in the long-term.
Recognising the challenge, NHS England published its Climate Adaptation Framework for NHS Trusts in July, providing a consistent approach to preparing and responding to the impacts of climate change.
Mott MacDonald is supporting NHS organisations to explore the risks resulting from climate change, and develop and implement best-practice approaches to establishing robust climate adaptation and resilience plans tailored to the unique needs of the healthcare sector.
In this Lunch and Learn, we’ll explore the new framework in depth, as well as the methods, tools and approaches that Mott MacDonald’s teams are deploying to help NHS organisations to better adapt to increasing climate risk and plan for long-term resilience.
