Partnerships


From developing medicines that elevate the standard of care, to rethinking how, where, and by whom care is delivered – we work to make lives better.


We don't do this alone. Guided by our ambition to create impact for individuals, the NHS, and for the economy, we collaborate to facilitate and evidence the value of new models of care in areas of high patient and system burden.

Our partnerships focus on ensuring people can access the right treatment, at the right time and in the right place, to help improve outcomes and reduce pressure on health services.

Collaborative Working Projects

Collaborative Working and Joint Working projects are a specific type of partnership between the NHS and the pharmaceutical industry, which aim to improve the efficiency and quality of the delivery of patient care.
