From 1 May 2023, we are reducing opening hours to 8am to 5pm weekdays and 9am to 1pm weekends and public holidays. It is no longer sustainable to maintain our previous opening times with the funding we receive, and with the pressures our workforce has faced over the last few years.
We are acutely aware that we serve a large high needs and vulnerable population with a high prevalence of limited health literacy and socioeconomic deprivation, so this is not a decision which we have taken lightly. We also acknowledge that this action will have effects on the stakeholders with whom we interact. We will continue to work with all parties to ensure that our patients receive the best care possible within the constraints of the resources available to us.
