Our Founder

Nishma Manek

Nish is a GP in Cambridge.

In 2016/17 she spent a year as a Clinical Fellow at NHS England. She was inspired by a similar initiative run in Birmingham for CCG leaders by Nick Harding, and set up the Next Generation GP programme with the help of Robert Varnam and Arvind Madan from NHS England.

NextGen has grown at a pace that I could never have predicted, which I think proves there is a real appetite amongst my generation to improve things and contribute to the future of primary care. Our team has expanded to over 50 young GPs who are doing a fantastic job in helping me to lead it across the country, and we’re still growing.
