The NMC Regional Connections
The NMC has regional leads located across the country, who collaborate with Regional Champions and lead Regional Steering Committees. These committees help support the NMC in achieving its objectives.
Regional Steering Committees meet monthly or quarterly to share insights and address the specific challenges faced by managers in their regions.

This collaboration fosters a stronger connection between regional needs and national objectives.
