You may have already seen communications about the upcoming Future Nottingham 2 drop‑in sessions taking place across our campuses, where you’ll have the opportunity to share your views on the Strategic Case for Change. In addition, we will be hosting a series of in-person and virtual engagement sessions to explore the Strategic Case for Change in more depth and gather detailed feedback. These sessions are now open for sign‑up via the link below.

Engagement sessions

What are the engagement sessions?

These sessions are designed to help you better understand the Strategic Case for Change and to provide a space for open discussion and in-depth feedback. They will be:

• Discussion-based rather than presentation-led
• Focussed on small-group conversations around key themes
• Designed for open, inclusive and constructive conversations

Participants will have the opportunity to move between discussion topics, hear a range of perspectives, and build on others’ feedback and thoughts. No preparation is needed - just a willingness to take part.

What will the sessions cover?

The sessions will focus on key concepts and themes from the case for change and how to provide feedback. It will cover:

• The FN2 Strategic Case for Change
• What the proposals are looking to change and what will stay the same
• Open and interactive space to discuss and feed back on the case for change
• Next steps

The Strategic Case for Change outlines the proposed strategic direction for Future Nottingham 2. Development of detailed future structures and changes to roles are yet to be determined. The session will not:

• Make final decisions
• Present confirmed plans or outcomes
• Focus on detailed organisational structures or role-level changes
• Address individual cases or issues
