The forum will be jointly chaired by Professor Ian Lewis, medical director at the Alder Hey Children’s NHS Foundation Trust, and Christine Lenehan, director at the Council for Disabled Children, and will include health experts from local government, the NHS and charities.
The group will be expected to come up with a strategy that focuses on improving health outcomes for children, including those needing primary, hospital and urgent care, and children with long-term conditions.
As part of this, the forum will canvas the views of children, parents, carers and professionals to identify the health issues that matter most to children, and consider how a modern NHS should cater to their needs.
