How might the proposed Future Fit options affect Powys people with protected characteristics

‘Future Fit have been in discussion with NHS staff and local Shropshire and Powys people to develop a range of possible options for the configuration of healthcare services in Shropshire Telford and Wrekin. The options will also have implications for Powys service users.

Future Fit are now seeking views of the public in Powys to understand how the changes are likely to impact upon people with protected characteristics under the Equality Act 2010. These characteristics include Age, Race, Ethnicity, Disability, Gender and Sexual Orientation.

To help NHS Future Fit to develop their understanding, they are providing links to a survey and also offering materials for focus groups and workshops. If you have a group who would be interested in responding, please contact the NHS Future Fit team at nhsfuturefit@nhs.net a link to the online survey will be published as soon as possible.
