A Healthier Bedfordshire
what you told us

NHS Bedfordshire spends close to £600 million on healthcare services every year for the 420,000 people who live in Bedfordshire.

We have reviewed and refreshed our strategy to take account of the views expressed.

Our plans do span the next few years and we will be holding further consultations on specific service developments as they arise. In the meantime we are always keen to listen to any views you may have about health and health services locally. We are currently completing a further refresh of our strategy for the second year of its implementation and will publish this on our website in March.
