Matt Hancock MP and Nick Hulme to speak at business event

This is an exclusive chance to hear from The Rt Hon Matt Hancock MP, who is a key player in the Prime Minister’s Cabinet and Secretary of State for Health and Social Care, together with Nick Hulme, who is leading innovative work as Chief Executive of the East Suffolk and North Essex NHS Foundation Trust.

Under Prime Minister Theresa May, Matt was appointed Minister for Digital & Culture in 2016 and then reappointed Minister for Digital in 2017 and then Culture Secretary in the Department of Digital, Culture Media & Sport in January 2018.

Nick Hulme has worked in the NHS and social care for more than 35 years. Nick was appointed Chief Executive at The Ipswich Hospital NHS Trust in January 2013 and in May 2016 also became Chief Executive of Colchester Hospital University NHS Foundation Trust. Following successful joint working, the two trusts merged on the 1 July 2018 to form East 

Luke Morris, chair of the Ipswich Suffolk Business Club, said: “It is a great privilege that both the Secretary of State for Health and Social Care and the Chief Exec of East Suffolk and North Essex NHS Foundation Trust will be joining our next business lunch as guest speakers. This will be another excellent and timely event for the club in the context of Brexit and we very much look forward to welcoming members and their guests on the 8th March.”
