Event details & registration of Interest:

Women’s health has historically been underrepresented in healthcare research, policy, and delivery - from conditions like endometriosis and menopause to disparities in screening, mental health, and maternity outcomes.

This hackathon invites early-career analysts to dive into data and spotlight the realities of women’s health in the NHS. How can we visualise better care, access, and outcomes for women? And how can we use data to drive positive change?

What is this Hackathon about:

  • Visualisation!
  • Designed for junior analysts, apprentices, and new starters.
  • You’ll work in small teams to explore real datasets, build visual stories, and share what you find. No coding required.
  • Just curiosity, collaboration, and a desire to turn data into something meaningful.

Who is this Hackathon for:

  • Women and allies in NHS data, analytics, or digital roles
  • Data apprentices, early-career analysts, or BI team members new to visualisation
  • No previous hackathon or public speaking experience needed
