Supporting Q Connections

This funding supported continued collaborative working through activities that strengthen networks and share and apply learning. The programme is now closed.

Supporting Q Connections provided Q members up to £20,000 for eligible activities that support collaborative learning and improvement. 

Supporting Q Connections funded activities that helped Q members collaborate across the improvement landscape: developing system-level networks, sharing and applying learning and increasing the impact of their improvement work. 

The programme followed on from previous Q funding programmes Connecting Q Locally and Supporting Local Learning. 

This programme is now closed.
