We’re seeking the Independent Members for HEIW 

The search for six Independent Members of the Board of HEIW is under way. Could you be one of the people we’re looking for?

Which functions will move to HEIW? 

The functions transferring to HEIW in April 2018 have now been agreed.  A number of activities are being developed to inform, engage, involve and support staff through the change process.  

Update on location 

The staff survey is helping to inform the decision about where to site the location of the HEIW headquarters.

Milestones 

Much of the feedback we have received is around the limited information about the programme. We hope the web pages are delivering this for you. In particular, you wanted to know when things were due to happen. The milestones are now online, so should help. However, please get in touch if you need anything that isn’t available.

Staff engagement sessions

Last week the first staff engagement session was held in the All Nations Centre, Cardiff.  Andrew Goodall, Chief Executive NHS Wales and Vaughan Gething AM, Cabinet Secretary for Health, Well-being and Sport spoke to staff about the future of HEIW. Find out what they said.

Stakeholder Events 

Following the successful event in July, we are putting the final touches to the document setting out the feedback we received from stakeholders at the session and noting areas where progress has been made during the summer.  This will soon be available on the website. In addition, we have a further event planned for November and an event for all stakeholders and staff in 2018 in advance of vesting day in April.

New workstream 

To enable the Location workstream to concentrate on the office location and other logistical issues, it has been agreed to set up a workstream to focus on  IT and Systems.
