Renewal of the Practitioner Health contract

 

We are delighted to announce the renewal of the Practitioner Health contract with NHS England for a further 12 months from 1st April 2026. This extension marks a significant moment as we continue to provide vital support to NHS staff and the wider health and care community. As ever, we are hugely grateful to our patients, our stakeholders and those who have shared their own stories and supported our service over the years. Your continued belief in our service enables us to fulfil our mission and make a meaningful difference to the lives of our patients, and by extension to the delivery of care to the general population. Almost 40,000 health and care professionals have now trusted us to treat them, and we are proud of our role in helping them to recover and return to their professional roles.

It is a huge honour that they have put their faith in us, and we are incredibly lucky to have such a committed and expert team of clinicians, therapists and operational staff who work with us to ensure the best outcome for every patient.

Thank you for your trust and support as we embark on another year of service.

The renewal of our contract in England will take us into our 18th year of operation and we look forward to continuing delivery of this lifeline service for NHS staff. As we celebrate this milestone, we remain dedicated to providing confidential, expert support for all health and care professionals who need it. Thank you for your trust and support as we embark on another year of service.

Lucy Warner, Chief Executive
