NATIONAL TRAVEL HEALTH NETWORK AND CENTRE

National Travel Health Network and Centre (NaTHNaC)

NaTHNaC was set up by the Department of Health in 2002 with the broad aim of 'Protecting the Health of British Travellers'. They seek to improve the quality of travel health advice given by GP practices, travel clinics, pharmacies and other healthcare providers, and provide up to date and reliable information for the international traveller, travel industry and national government.

They are commissioned by UK Health Security Agency and hosted by University College London Hospitals NHS Foundation Trust (UCLH); we also work in partnership with our other network founders Liverpool School of Tropical Medicine (LSTM), London School of Hygiene and Tropical Medicine (LSHTM) and the Hospital for Tropical Diseases (HTD). The network partners and Department of Health provide strategic guidance to NaTHNaC through representation on a Technical Advisory Group which meets quarterly.
