You are invited – join us for Portsmouth Hospitals University NHS Trust’s Health Fair and Annual General Meeting 2024

Portsmouth Hospitals University NHS Trust (PHU) is hosting a community Health Fair and Annual General Meeting on Tuesday 17 September, and everyone is welcome.

Following the success of the previous year’s event, we will again be holding a community health fair at the event, featuring a range of stands showcasing the best of local services and packed with information and advice on living a healthy lifestyle, tips for greener living and a showcase of our achievements.

Held at the John Pound Centre in Portsea, a number of PHU services will be available to talk to, seek advice and have a conversation with. Along with PHU services, we have also invited many community partners so you can come along and hear more about the healthcare in our area and the different services available to you.

As part of the event, our Annual General Meeting (AGM) will take place, during which people will be able to discover more about the work of the Trust, ongoing projects such as the new Emergency Department as well as our challenges and achievements of the year.
