The new Health Innovation Campus at Lancaster University will make a major contribution towards tackling some of the significant health challenges we face today.

As people continue to live longer, the preservation of good health and quality of life presents significant challenges to an increasingly ageing population. Health systems in the UK, and globally, are under enormous pressure, requiring innovative approaches to address these issues.

Health innovation at Lancaster will adopt a focussed, multi-disciplinary and multi-stakeholder approach to developing new health solutions which generate impact at scale. I am leading on a £2million supporting small businesses, social enterprises, and charities in Lancashire to re-imagine health and wellbeing solutions for the future; doing things differently in health.
