| From Ickenham Residents. We are circulating this as requested Sent on behalf of Jason Seez, chief infrastructure and redevelopment officer Dear all We would like to invite you and your members to a meeting to hear about the updated proposals for the new Hillingdon Hospital. This will take place on Thursday 12 November in the Education Centre at Hillingdon Hospital. Doors will open at 6.45pm, with the presentation beginning at 7pm. In January 2025, the Government announced that the redevelopment of Hillingdon Hospital would proceed in the New Hospital Programme, a major UK initiative to modernise healthcare infrastructure in England. It advised that all new hospital builds should comply with a standardised blueprint, Hospital 2.0, which sets out how key areas of the hospital should be designed and laid out. We have been updating our designs to reflect this and would like to share these with you and hear your views. The new hospital will provide modern, state-of-the-art facilities that support outstanding care for local people, improve the experience of patients and staff, and embrace the latest technology, helping to meet the healthcare needs of our communities for years to come. This is an opportunity to meet the project team, learn more about the proposals and ask any questions you may have. Please register your attendance and let us know about any accessibility or language requirements by emailing thh.newhillingdonhospital@nhs.net or calling 0800 048 5592. This line is open Monday to Friday, 9am to 5pm. The Education Centre is accessible from the public car park near the main entrance of the hospital. The What3Words location is: ///always.civil.trash We look forward to welcoming you. Kind regards Jason Seez Chief infrastructure and redevelopment officer |

Have your say on health services
| We have been asked to circulate this by Healthwatch Hillingdon, the health and social care champion for the borough. that can be found in chequers square in the pavilions which are conducting a survey to gather community feedback on accessing general practice (GP) services in the area. Its aim is to understand residents’ experiences and preferences regarding GP access, which will help shape recommendations to improve these services based on the community’s needs. The survey offers residents the opportunity to share their recent experiences and priorities for accessing GP services. By collecting a wide range of insights, It hopes to inform changes that can make GP services more accessible and responsive to the community. This email includes a link to an article providing further information about the survey, along with the survey link itself. The survey is brief and anonymous, and all responses will contribute to a clearer understanding of community perspectives on GP access. Please note that the survey will remain open until 31 December 2024, as Healthwatch Hillingdon will begin analysing responses in early January.

Enforcement of dropped kerbs
The Council provides a service for residents and businesses that find their access blocked by a motorist.
You will need to register your property if you have a dropped kerb – The Association’s General Secretary registered hers many years ago but was allowed to register again. This suggests that, since it is now an outsourced facility, previous registrations have not been carried forward.

Orthopaedic surgery moving to Park Royal
From Hillingdon hospitals NHS Foundation trust
The proposal to bring together most routine inpatient orthopaedic surgery in north-west London in a new centre of excellence at Central Middlesex Hospital was approved today (Tuesday 21 March) by NHS North West London, the sector’s integrated care board.
The proposal incorporates feedback from a 13-week public consultation that closed earlier this year involving almost 2,000 people.
The North-West London Acute Provider Collaborative, made up of the sector’s four acute NHS trusts, developed the proposal to improve quality and reduce long waiting times, primarily for hip and knee replacements.
As well as feedback from the public consultation, the proposal reflects feedback and guidance from the London Clinical Senate, the North-West London Joint Health Overview and Scrutiny Committee and the Mayor of London (who commissioned the Nuffield Trust to assess the proposal against his six tests for major NHS service change). The proposal is set out in a ‘decision making business case’ that has been published on the Collaborative website, www.nwl-acute-provider-collaborative.nhs.uk/publications. see https://thh.nhs.uk/news-events/centre-of-excellence-for-inpatient-orthopaedic-surgery-in-nwl-gets-the-goahead-705 for the full report
