Islanders invited to NHS Western Isles’ Annual Review 

NHS Western Isles is encouraging our local communities to attend next month’s Annual Review, the purpose of which is to assess the Board’s performance for the period 2024/25.

Members of the public are invited to attend, either in person or join online via a Teams link. It will be held on Wednesday 19th November from 2.30pm in An Lanntair in Stornoway.  

If you wish to attend, either in person or online, you have to book your place by emailing wi.annualreview@nhs.scot, providing your name, address, and contact number. Alternatively you can phone 01851 708044. If you require any special support, please include this in your email.

NHS Western Isles Board Chair, Gillian McCannon, said: “Each year, NHS Western Isles has its performance reviewed by the Scottish Government, in the format of an Annual Review. The Annual Review is an important opportunity for NHS Western Isles to discuss our achievements and challenges over the period 2024/25 as well as how we have delivered against the national healthcare targets, and any future plans.

“We always encourage members of the public to attend to hear about how their local health service is performing. There is an opportunity this year to either attend in-person or online, and anyone with an interest in local health services is very welcome to attend.”
