Requesting funding from NHS England East of England

Each year the Regional Faculty for Advancing Practice communicates with healthcare employers and primary care training hubs in the east of England to scope demand for advanced practice training funding. This scoping exercise will usually take place between January and March of each year and will be completed by the advanced practice lead within an employing organisation, or within a ICB primary care training hub where training demand is from a primary care employer.

If you are a trainee or an employer who would like to enquire about receiving NHS England funding for advanced practice training, please first contact either your primary care training hub (if you are employed in a primary care organisation) or your employing organisation’s advanced practice lead. If you do not know these contact details, please ask us at england.eoeapfaculty@nhs.net.
