Mission statement ‘We are an alliance of patient charities which think the health and care
system can and must transform what it does so it can give people longer, healthier lives. We believe there is sufficient money within the NHS to achieve this in health, although there is a crisis in funding for social care which needs to be remedied. Doctors, managers and politicians don’t speak for patients. Patients do. They need to be heard so that the right changes are made now – and we can make that happen.’
We came together to achieve jointly what we cannot achieve individually. That is:
• To champion the cause of improved outcomes and productivity through patient-centred, high-quality care;
• To disrupt the conversation between professionals and policymakers by bringing patient voices into health decision-making;
• To encourage the kind of transformational change which will most improve outcomes and experience for patients: a reorganisation of the system to make it more preventative, integrated and patient-centred.

Ten Top Tips for an effective coalition
• Get senior level engagement on the principles of what the focus of the work is first – this frees people up later
• The role of the secretariat / facilitator is very important, consistency is very important, the skills set is more facilitative than project management
• Build trust and relationships (even more important than you think)

Ten Top Tips for an effective coalition
