Managing for change

Since 1988, the Health Services Management Development Trust has given some 34,000 pounds in awards to people embarking on management projects in the health services. The Trust is funded by a partnership of the Institute of Health Services Management and a group of major suppliers to the health services: Boots, Four Square Division of Mars GB, Gardner Merchant, Hewlett Packard and IBM. They also offer mentoring and assist in publicising the project results.
