Delivering our strategy

We’ll take a disciplined approach to prioritisation — focusing our energy and resources on the areas that will have the greatest impact for patients, staff, and partners.

This strategy will be supported by several ‘enabling’ strategies — including digital, workforce, and finance. Delivering this strategy will require significant change — across services, systems, and culture.

Our approach to change will include:

  • Patient, staff, and partner engagement and co-production, ensuring those closest to services shape how change happens
  • Building our capacity and capability for change, including quality improvement training, tools, and support for teams leading transformation
  • Ensuring that change is inclusive and compassionate, recognising the emotional impact of transformation and supporting our people through it.

Our Board will oversee the delivery of this strategy, ensuring alignment with our values, statutory duties, and our partners in the Integrated Care System.

Strategic ambitions will be embedded into Board sub-committees, with regular reporting to track progress and assess risk.

We will also develop a refreshed performance framework, linking our five strategic ambitions to measurable quality, finance, and workforce outcomes
