The aim of the event is to improve the understanding of the need for good design in healthcare buildings water systems and water-using products, helping to reduce the current numbers of Healthcare Acquired Infections (HAIs) through improvement of design. 
 
There are many great, knowledgeable speakers throughout the day and there will also be a student design competition to run alongside the event, hopefully from Sheffield University Students. 
 
We believe that promoting through SoPHE would be extremely beneficial to the event due to your audience. In return for any support with the advertising of the event we would be happy to offer your members a discount to attend and help promote any up-coming seminars or events you may have.
