Regions

The National Association of Equipment Providers has been working over recent years to establish a network of regional groups throughout the United Kingdom.

From the establishment of the first Regional Group in the North West, the benefits and success of this group have pioneered the development and the achievement of this network.

Contributing to the future development and direction of NAEP

Anyone working within equipment provision can benefit from becoming a member of NAEP – our membership has a broad spectrum of personnel, including commissioners, clinicians, prescribers, budget managers, specialist nurses, Equipment Managers, therapists and technicians to name but a few.

We are pleased to receive the support and involvement from the commercial sector, who, in sponsoring our meetings, allow the opportunity for members to be kept up to date on new product introductions and to provide feedback to suppliers and manufacturers on product development.

Guests are welcome to attend up to two Regional Meetings after which, we would hope that by experiencing the activities of the groups, you would be encouraged to support NAEP and the work of the regions by becoming a member.

If you would like to learn more about the Regional Group within your area or to attend a meeting as a guest, please contact the Regional Chair for your region.
