Introduction
We recognise the crucial role of patient engagement in driving the successful adoption of any innovation as evidenced by our collaboration with organisations like the NHS Accelerated Access Collaborative to develop a practical framework to routinely collect patient insights as part of adoption and spread planning .
Furthermore , our pledge to support the NHS in its efforts to reduce its carbon footprint and promote net zero practices is evident through initiatives like the Sheep Shed Green Award programme commissioned by Humber and North Yorkshire Health and Care Partnership ( page 37 ).
We know that our achievements are only possible by working together . We look forward to collaborating with you as we continue to work together and support our ICSs in their ambition to create a healthy , equitable , safe and sustainable society . Finally , we would like to say a huge thank you to all our partners and stakeholders for their continued support and to our staff for their hard work , resilience , and enthusiasm .
