Shrewsbury Health and Wellbeing Hub

Welcome to the dedicated webpage for the Shrewsbury Health and Wellbeing Hub.

The hub is a proposal that would involve the co-location of six GP practices working seamlessly alongside other health, social care, voluntary and community services in a state-of-the-art building. The facility could offer high-quality care for the local community and would be a fantastic resource for the southern part of Shrewsbury.

This page will be regularly updated as progress continues and contains lots of information about the programme such as latest news, key documents including the Case for Change, Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs), as well as engagement activity to date.

Our current engagement activity

 

From 16 January to 31 March 2023, a further round of community engagement will take place which will focus on groups we have so far heard less from. These include:

  • Youth (16-24)
  • Elderly and in particular those 80+
  • Males
  • LGBT+
  • Ethnic minority groups
  • Disability groups
  • Expectant and new parents.

To support this, we will be holding online and face-to-face focus groups, as well as attending numerous community meetings across Shrewsbury.

Our approach will be flexible and will work to suit what is best for those groups of people we would like to hear from.

If you would like to get involved, please contact Sara Buckley at stw.getinvolved@nhs.net to start the conversation.
