Changes to the NHS in Bristol, North Somerset and South Gloucestershire<\/h1>\n

In March 2025, the Government announced significant changes for the Department of Health and Social Care and many NHS organisations.<\/p>\n

As part of these changes, all integrated care boards (ICBs) are being asked to reduce running costs by 50% and shift to a particular focus on strategic commissioning. To help achieve this, ICBs will work together in clusters, covering larger areas.<\/p>\n

NHS Bristol, North Somerset and South Gloucestershire ICB has now clustered with NHS Gloucestershire ICB. Both ICBs will continue to be statutory bodies and legal entities for now but will work together in partnership.<\/p>\n

A single Chair and Chief Executive for the cluster were appointed in September 2025 and work is ongoing to develop a single executive team.<\/p>\n

Joint Transition Committee<\/strong><\/h2>\n

The Joint Transition Committee has been set up to oversee and manage the safe and effective transition as our two organisations move towards merging.<\/p>\n

The Committee makes key decisions, monitors progress and ensures the Boards are kept informed throughout the process.<\/p>\n
