Applications are open for 2 more Regional Clinical Lead roles in England

Last month, the Excellence Network moved to a new regional model in England and introduced the 7 newly-formed Parkinson’s Excellence Network (PEN) regions in England, with the boundaries aligned to the 7 NHS England regions. Click here to read more about the new model. 

The regional model in the devolved nations remains the same: there are 3 regions in Scotland, 2 in Wales and 1 region in Northern Ireland.
