The Best Practice Show: Shaping the Future of Healthcare
The Best Practice Show is an annual two-day event that brings together healthcare professionals from across the UK. It serves as a platform for them to explore the latest trends, innovations, and developments in the realm of general practice and primary care. This year, the event will return once again to the vibrant city of Birmingham and is poised to be bigger and better than ever before.

Joining him will be Phin Robinson, Founder & Director of our sister company, Pure Physiotherapy. His insights into the integration of physiotherapy within primary care will undoubtedly provide a fresh perspective on the subject.
Since 2006, Phin Robinson founded Pure Physiotherapy, which has grown into a team of over 300 physiotherapists operating nationwide. Collaborating with both the NHS and independent organisations, Pure Physiotherapy has been pivotal in delivering Musculoskeletal (MSK) physiotherapy and pain services.
For over eight years, Phin has been a central figure in implementing First Contact Physiotherapy (FCP) services. He has also actively partnered with Health Education England, where he champions the ARRS roles in primary care.
Rounding out the panel is Nick Sharples, Managing Partner at DNA Insight: a premier healthcare training consultancy specialising in Personalised Care. Nick has been an integral part of shaping the Personalised Care syllabus since its inception. He has collaborated closely with the NHS and the Personalised Care Institute to craft job descriptions and workforce development frameworks for the three essential Personalised Care roles.
With an array of regular training programs geared towards supporting these roles, Nick and his team engage with approximately 100 Personalised Care professionals each month. This extensive interaction provides him with a unique perspective on the various ways in which the three ARRS roles (Social Prescriber, Care Coordinator, and Health Coach) are deployed and utilised within Primary Care Networks (PCNs) and the broader primary care landscape.
