Convatec Senior Medical Affairs Director Dr Ased Ali joined a broad range of speakers from both NHS and industry yesterday at the 2024 NHS LTP & ICB conference. The conference, which took place at the Royal Society of Medicine, London, was titled Building an NHS fit for the future and aimed to provide a focus on the pivotal issues concerning future NHS strategy. Speaking during the afternoon session, which explored tackling and managing chronic illnesses, long term conditions and elective recovery, Ased’s presentation was entitled ‘Waiting lists to Wellness: industry collaboration that can transform overactive bladder pathways’. The event was an opportunity to engage and learn from key NHS stakeholders about how we can better support and collaborate to improve the lives of those we touch. #WeAreConvatec #forevercaring #ForeverConvatec

This September, Convatec Continence Care has once again joined forces with The Urology Foundation to support #UrologyAwarenessMonth. Our collaboration with the Urology Foundation highlights the importance of recognising and addressing urological conditions early and aims to breakdown the stigma surrounding urological health. Whilst the Urology Foundation’s campaign emphasises men’s urology, our involvement reflects our broader commitment to raising awareness of urological conditions across all genders. The theme for the month is ‘myths and legends’, seeking to debunk widely-held myths while celebrating the legends who share their experiences and advocate for urological health. The campaign covers a range of urological issues, including bladder health, kidney stones, urological cancers, and the importance of proper hydration. It encourages everyone to take action when something doesn't feel right and to 'be a legend' by seeking medical advice. In this powerful video, we’d like to honour all the medical professionals and scientific communities working to advance urology care for their dedication and hard work. Our support for Urology Awareness Month not only elevates awareness around urology health but also aligns with our forever caring promise. By encouraging people to speak up about their health, we are promoting healthier communities and reducing the stigma associated with urological conditions.

Thank you to all our participants over this 3-day tour. Looking forward to the next educational collaboration!

This week, colleagues at our largest UK manufacturing site in Deeside, north Wales were pleased to host a visit from the local Member of Parliament, the Rt Hon Mark Tami. During his visit, Mark met colleagues and was given a demonstration of our different products and solutions in advanced wound care, as well as a tour of our facilities including our textile line and new clean room. Our CFO Jonny Mason and UK manufacturing site leader Adeel Mushtaq enjoyed hosting Mark, alongside other leaders in research and development and operations.

Today, on World Humanitarian Day, we recognise the important role of humanitarian workers in delivering life-saving support and protection to those who need it most. In line with our forever caring promise, we also support humanitarian partners who serve vulnerable populations in our communities. This year we contributed to relief efforts around the catastrophic flooding in South Brazil, and the devastating earthquake in Japan. We also continued to support our charity partners working in Ukraine, with additional product donations bringing our total contribution to over $2 million. In addition, we take this moment to thank our global charity partner, Partners In Health (PIH). Through our partnership, PIH has facilitated the training and equipping of hundreds of Community Health Workers (CHW), which by extension, have touched the lives of thousands of people. #WorldHumanitarianDay #ConvateCares #PIH #WeAreConvatec #ForeverCaring #ForeverConvatec
