The Peninsula Public Health Network (PPHN) is the multi-disciplinary public health network for Devon and Cornwall sponsored by the NHS public health departments in Plymouth, Devon, Cornwall and Torbay. PPHN is hosted and managed via NHS Plymouth Public Health Directorate; the PPHN also receives a grant from the SW Chartered Institute of Environmental Health.
The PPHN aims to:
- Raise awareness of public health training/education needs in the Peninsula,
- Strengthen links between education providers and the public health workforce,
- Raise awareness of the availability of public health education and training opportunities, for the breadth of the public health practice, across the Peninsula.
