The Future of The Hollies Surgery

Posted on:

Please see the below statement issued by the Norfolk and Waveney Integrated Care Board (ICB) regarding the future of The Hollies Surgery:

“Norfolk and Waveney Integrated Care Board (ICB) are pleased to confirm that Litcham Health Centre will be providing GP medical services at The Hollies Surgery (at Downham Market Health Centre) from 1st April 2025. During 2025/26 the ICB will be undertaking a procurement exercise to ensure long term arrangements are implemented from April 2026. Vida Healthcare will continue to provide care up until the 31st March and will work with Litcham Health Centre and the wider system in the transition of the service to the new provider. While every effort will be made to minimise disruption, there may be some changes as we move through the mobilisation period.

We recognise that changes in service provision can be unsettling to both staff and patients. We are committed to open, ongoing communication and we will engage in further discussion with everyone affected to provide support throughout this transition. Individual staff members should in the first instance discuss any concerns with their own respective organisation. Patients will be kept updated on the progress of this transition, and further information will be shared as it becomes available.”
