National Voices thanks Amanda Pritchard for her strong leadership

Jacob Lant, Chief Executive of National Voices responds to the announcement that Amanda Pritchard, Chief Executive of NHS England, will step down at the end of March.

  • Health inequalities

Amanda Pritchard took over as Chief Executive of NHS England during the COVID-19 pandemic. She showed strong and calm leadership during this extremely testing time and has continued to do so as the NHS has sought to recover performance and deliver the care people need.

We would like to thank Amanda for her dedication to the NHS, and to acknowledge her willingness to work with the VCSE sector to hear from the most marginalised and minoritised communities. Last month’s Elective Care Reform plan is just one example of how Amanda has brought an increased focus to addressing health inequalities and improving patient experience.

We look forward to continuing these conversations with Sir James Mackey as he transitions into his new role, and stand ready to support at this crucial moment helping to develop and implement the NHS 10 Year Plan.
