Dear Colleague

 

NW Regional Innovation Fund set to go live

              

Applications are due to open within the next two weeks for the NHS North West's new Regional Innovation Fund.

 

InnovateNoW, as the programme will be known, aims to support NHS organisations and innovative partnerships to drive the quality and productivity of the regional healthcare services and meet healthcare demands.

 

It offers varying levels of funding available, ranging between £5,000- and £250,000 through a number of award schemes. Applications must be from an NHS organisation, but can include partnerships with Trusts, PCTs, HEIs, and third sector and private sector partners.

 

The RIF is being managed by TrusTECH, the North West NHS Innovation Hub, on behalf of NHS North West.

 

If you would like to be kept up to date on the RIF application process please contact innovation@northwest.nhs.uk (putting 'RIF goes live' in the e-mail heading and providing your contact details) or ring 0161 276 5764.

 

Alternatively check the website at www.innovatenow.org.uk - further details will be posted as and when they become available.

 

Kind Regards
