At ICHP we believe that innovation can be a powerful trigger to create new ways of working.

Through working with world leading hospitals, community providers, commissioners and universities, we match health challenges with new innovations. This helps our partners provide the best possible health and care outcomes for North West London's 2.3 million residents.

ICHP is part of the NHS family and our success is the success of our partners.

At the same time, we are sufficiently removed from the daily pressures of the health and care system enabling us to provide a fresh perspective, headspace and a bridge into other sectors and industries.

We are therefore uniquely placed to understand the challenges within the NHS, its structures, processes, policies and culture and help solve complex problems.

Our team of diverse and committed experts have the tools, networks and skills to quickly understand and tackle these challenges.

We are motivated by our values of creating high quality impact, asking the difficult questions and bringing together the right people to solve a challenge.
