Forum Central present: How to utilise the West Yorkshire Insight Library with Murray Forrest
Added: 03/08/2026
Forum Central
Forum Central has arranged a series of webinars, specifically for infrastructure and statutory organisations within West Yorkshire.
These will introduce them to the NHS Futures platform and raise awareness of how it may be useful for VCSE organisations and infrastructure.
An initial tailored session will be held on Thursday 6th August, between 11am – 12pm
It will introduce the NHS Futures platform / tool and more specifically the Insight Library and the associated information that will be useful to VCSE organisations e.g. the population data by neighbourhoods.
Murray Forrest from the West Yorkshire Communications and Involvement Team at the ICB, part of the West Yorkshire Health and Care Partnership, will guide the session.
Its aim is to help make sure the insight collected by VCSE organisations is visible, used well and valued. We want commissioners and researchers to draw on the work which has already been done, and to allow attendees the opportunity to offer further insights.
The session will cover how the library can help you to:
- Gather wider and deeper evidence
- Build on each other’s progress
- Explore parallel solutions
- Maximise learning across the system
- Make new contacts and collaborate
