Our Partnership recognises the value our local communities have in helping us plan the delivery of health and care services for the future.

It’s important to us that staff, patients and the public are a part of this process every step of the way and we are committed to ensuring individuals and group’s views and experiences influence our work streams. We know that involving patients and the public allows us to better meet the needs of the local populations we serve.

All partners regularly talk to and engage with the public, their patients, service users, staff and the communities they work with which helps us to share good practice and minimise duplication.

Over the past three years we have undertaken a phased programme of engagement leading to the large scale public consultation in 2018.

Whilst this focussed predominantly on the hospital plans, it also provided the opportunity to have conversations on the wider health and care system with our population.

Your thoughts, views and feedback continue to be vitally important to us.  We use open engagement events, our website and social media to share information and listen to you.
