Question to the Department of Health and Social Care:

To ask the Secretary of State for Health and Social Care, with reference to the NHS 10 Year Plan, published 3 July 2025, where the new neighbourhood health centres will be located.

Over the course of our 10-Year Health Plan, we aim to establish a Neighbourhood Health Centre in every community.

Nationwide coverage will take time, but we will start in the areas of greatest need, like in coastal towns and working-class communities, including by using public capital to update and refurbish existing, under-used buildings, targeting places where healthy life expectancy is lowest, and delivering healthcare closer to home for those that need it the most.

Successful centres are already operating across the country in places such as Birmingham and Whitstable, showing how the service can work and be delivered for local people.
