We are very excited to welcome 436 new members to the Q community today.

Through Q we are connecting a diverse range of people, who have improvement expertise, to form a UK-wide community. Q is making it easier for people to come together to share ideas, enhance skills and collaborate to make health and care better.

Our newest members join us from  East of England, Greater Manchester, Kent, Surrey and Sussex, Wessex and Wales as part of a phased approach to growing the community. We now have  1,789 members, and that will grow again before the end of 2017.There are on-going opportunities to join Q in 2017. As part of this, we have partnered with a number of organisations – Health Improvement Scotland, Public Health Wales, Health and Social Care Northern Ireland and in England the Academic Health Science Network (AHSNs).
