Background

On 30 November 2023, we published details on proposals for a consultation into how between £700 million and £900 million would best be invested in hospital services across the county. On 6 December 2023, NHS Hampshire and Isle of Wight Integrated Care Board took the decision to launch a public consultation on the proposals.

These proposals provide a once-in-a-generation opportunity to improve hospital facilities and hospital services and enable us to provide the very best care for people who need it.

The proposals have been designed by clinicians, with patients, and are based on clinical evidence and best practice. At their heart is the need to deliver safe, high-quality services, sustainable for the future, with sufficient specialist staff to run services well.

At this stage, they are still proposals – this public consultation is about listening to our patients, local communities/members of the public, and staff. We are looking forward to discussing the proposals with you, and keen to hear what you think of the options we are putting forward, how the proposals could impact on you, and where you think they could be improved.

How the event will run

The event will start with a presentation followed by a Q&A session. We’ll then breakout into groups to discuss benefits, concerns, issues, and potential mitigations. Each group will be assisted by a facilitator and scribe.
