Salix Exhibiting at the Healthcare Estates Management Conference

Wednesday 01 February 2023

The Healthcare Estates Management Conference: Building and Maintaining the Future of Our Health is taking place on 25th July at AJ Bell Stadium in Manchester.

The event is organised by the University of Salford Manchester and will explore alternative ways of funding the NHS estate as capital investment is diverted to cover running costs. At the conference, challenges to the health care system including an ageing population and a shift towards preventative care will be discussed.
