About the NHS Confederation

NHS Confederation logo

The NHS Confederation is the membership body that brings together and speaks on behalf of all organisations that plan, commission and provide NHS services. 

Our members are drawn from every part of the health and care system and join 560+ organisations connected to the NHS Confederation

We have three roles: 

  • to be an influential system leader
  • to represent our members with politicians, national bodies, the unions and in Europe
  • and to support our members to continually improve care for patients and the public.

All of our work is underpinned and driven by our vision of an empowered, healthy population supported by world-class health and care services; and our values of voice, openness, integrity, challenge, empowerment.                 

Charity number 1090329. Company number 04358614. Registered address Floor 15, Portland House, Bressenden Place, London, SW1E 5BH.
