It champions safety, innovation and diversity and is supported by Health Education England. It has had a significant impact, as evidenced by the growing number of its members in senior leadership positions, its 75 Shuri Fellows, innovative programmes, feedback from members and partnerships with allies including NHSX, NHS Digital and NHS England.
