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.

We have three roles:

  • 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.
