Have your say on urgent care services in Hampshire & the Isle of Wight (HIOW).

HIOW ICB is gathering feedback on Integrated Urgent Care (IUC) services as part of a review ahead of contract renewal in 2028. No immediate changes are planned, this is about understanding what's working and what could be improved.

They are particularly keen to hear from people whose voices are not always captured in surveys. If you have links with community groups or individuals who may be considered seldom heard, for example older people, carers, people with disabilities, minority ethnic communities, LGBTQ+ or those who may face barriers accessing services, they would really appreciate your help in sharing the survey with them as well.

Two surveys are now open:

👉 Health & care professionals: https://survey.ntropydata.co.uk/surveys/JG2026IUC1

👉 Patients & the public: https://survey.ntropydata.co.uk/surveys/JG2026IUC2

Whether you're based in Portsmouth, Southampton, Hampshire or the Isle of Wight, your feedback counts. Please share!

Today, on International Nurses Day, we want to say thank you to every nurse making a difference across healthcare.

From primary and urgent care nurses to ADHD nurses, paediatric nurses, district nurses, custody nurses, sexual assault referral centre nurses, practice nurses, community nurses, specialist nurses, and so many more, your compassion, expertise and dedication changes lives every single day.
Nurses are often there during some of the most difficult, vulnerable and important moments in a person’s life. The care, reassurance and professionalism you bring to patients, families and colleagues never goes unnoticed.

To all nurses across our services and beyond: thank you for everything you do to keep delivering brilliant, safe care. Happy International Nurses Day.

Big shout out to our Hampshire Police Custody team (plus neices and dogs!) who rolled up their sleeves for a beach clean today on Hayling Island, Hampshire.

As an organisation, we’re committed to delivering social value and making a positive impact in the communities where we operate and this was a brilliant example of that in action.

By helping to keep our local coastline clean and safe, the team played their part in protecting the environment and supporting the wellbeing of the local community.

Not content with just cleaning the beach, a few brave souls were even planning a dip in the Solent afterwards, a well-earned (and very chilly!) reward for their hard work.

A huge thank you to everyone involved for giving up their time and showing what it means to truly care for our communities and our environment. And a thank you to the sunshine that came out in time for the beach clean!

Trigger Warning: Content relates to victims of crime

As a proud provider of two Sexual Assault Referral Centre (SARC) services in the UK who support individuals in Dorset and Lincolnshire, we’re backing the latest national survey from the Victims’ Commissioner.

Claire Waxman, London’s first Independent Victims’ Commissioner, has launched the 2026 Victims’ Survey, helping ensure that people with lived experience of crime have a chance to be heard.

This is the only independent, national survey that gathers insights directly from victims across all crime types and stages of the justice process. The findings play a vital role in shaping recommendations to improve support and outcomes.

- Open from 8 April to 6 May 2026

- Takes around 15 minutes

- Anonymous

- Open to anyone aged 16+ who has experienced or reported a crime since January 2021

If this applies to you, or someone you support, this is a chance to speak your own words, on your own terms.
