Question to the Department of Health and Social Care:

To ask the Secretary of State for Health and Social Care, whether he plans to (a) increase the range and (b) improve the standard of services available at Alfred Bean Hospital in Driffield; and if he will make a statement.

Alfred Bean Hospital is part of Humber Teaching NHS Foundation Trust’s long-term estates strategy. The trust’s core goal is to maximise the use of the range of services available on site.

It is important to the trust that optimal space planning is structured in a way that will ensure maximum benefit for people across Driffield and the surrounding areas. The trust is working closely with the League of Friends, Driffield Healthy Town Group, and local commissioners to ensure the site is a continued priority.
