In this webinar, Jo and Karen will discuss:

• How ICBs and Directors of Commissioning prepare for winter pressures
• The current key areas of focus at Place and ICB level
• Specific challenges and pressures facing the NHS now and in the run up to winter
• Immediate and long-term impact of (expected) new government policies
