About Us

Southern Health is one of the largest NHS Foundation Trusts in the UK, specializing in mental health and learning disabilities, as well as offering physical health community-based services. With a workforce of over 7,000 and a footprint spanning more than 200 sites across Hampshire, we are committed to providing the best possible healthcare, reaching diverse communities, and placing patients and staff at the forefront of our endeavors.

We are currently working closely with other NHS Trusts to integrate our collective community, mental health, and learning disability services. Our new organization, to be known as Hampshire and Isle of Wight NHS Foundation Trust, is set to launch in July 2024.

The transformation will occur in staggered stages, with Hampshire CAMHS, part of Sussex Partnership NHS Foundation Trust, joining Southern Health in February 2024, and Isle of Wight NHS Trust mental health and community services transitioning in early May 2024. The final combination of Southern Health and Solent Trusts is anticipated to occur in July 2024, when the new organization will be formed.

Our new Trust will continue to cater to the unique needs of different communities, making healthcare across the county more accessible, as well as offering staff more opportunities for career development, training, and partnership working.
