The NHS Trust Development Authority (TDA), Care Quality Commission, clinical commissioning groups and the trust continue to work together to improve performance.

The TDA will continue to meet regularly with the trust’s leadership team to review and monitor progress, to ensure response times continue to improve.

As part of overall operational resilience planning for winter, we have provided an additional £50 million nationally to support ambulance trusts in managing extra demand.
