Question to the Department of Health and Social Care:

To ask the Secretary of State for Health and Social Care, whether funding will be made available to help (a) hospitals and (b) GP practices increase their accessibility for people with mobility needs.

We provide operational capital to integrated care boards to prioritise locally, this funding is for the National Health Service to spend on day-to-day needs - including renewal and replacement of equipment, minor building works and ensuring the estate is accessible for people with mobility needs.

We provided £4.2 billion in operational capital last year and an additional £8.4 billion over the next two financial years which systems can use to invest in both the hospital & primary care estate.
