10-Year Plan Briefing on NHS Trusts Development

The NHS Fit for the Future 10-Year Health Plan was published on 3 July 2025. The Plan outlines three main objectives for the future of healthcare:

1 moving care from hospitals to community setting

2 transitioning services from analogue to digital, and

3 shifting the emphasis from sickness to prevention.

To achieve these objectives, as part of a devolved and diverse NHS, the Plan sets out several structural changes for NHS providers.
