Our strategy

After a year of external and internal engagement work we have we have launched our 5 year Trust Strategy (September 2018).

We have engaged externally with: service users, carers and families; members of the public, commissioners; voluntary sector and community groups; MPs and councillors; the South West London Health and Care Partnership.

Our new strategy includes four strategic ambitions:

• Increasing quality years
• Reducing inequalities
• Making the Trust a great place to work
• Ensuring sustainability

These ambitions move us to focus on outcomes, not processes and are held together by our mission – Making Life Better Together – which is at the centre of our work.

We have a core set of programmes (quality, co-production and service user and carer involvement, collaboration and partnership working, the Estates Modernisation Programme, and transformation), enabling strategies and service line specific initiatives that will ensure delivery of an exciting new phase in the Trust.

The Trust agrees an annual set of corporate objectives that have quarterly milestones per year working towards delivery of these overarching strategic objectives.  There are also a suite of Board approved enabling strategies that help support delivery of these strategic objectives.  These are all reviewed on an annual basis, and implementation plans updated annually. The enabling strategies are:

• Quality
• Workforce and Organisational Development
• Estates
• Research and Development
• Digital
• Co-production/Service User Experience
• Communications and Engagement
