Aneurin Bevan University Health Board is responsible for all health services across the former county of Gwent (including the local authority areas of Blaenau-Gwent, Caerphilly, Monmouthshire, Newport and Torfaen) and some of the population of South Powys.
The Health Board is looking to ensure that the services delivered in what we call our enhanced local general hospitals (such as Nevill Hall Hospital, Royal Gwent Hospital and Ysbyty Ystrad Fawr) are as effective as possible to support our critical care centre at the Grange University Hospital and our community services.
We have produced the documents below to set out our thinking and the principles we would like to use when making decisions about how services are organised in the future. It is important that everyone who has an interest in our services has an opportunity to understand the proposals and to let us know their views.
To ensure the public can consider the proposals, the Health Board is working closely with Llais (formerly known as Aneurin Bevan Community Health Council) and an eight-week period of public engagement has been arranged. This will run from Tuesday 24 June 2025 until Friday 15 August 2025.

Attend a public engagement session, where you can listen to a presentation, find out more about the proposal and ask any questions of Health Board staff.
We will do our best to fulfil your requirements to allow you to fully participate in the meeting. Please let us know two weeks in advance if you have any special requirements such as hearing loops, British Sign Language interpreter, wheelchair access, etc.

At these community engagement sessions over the next few weeks communications and engagement staff will have information about the meetings taking place and paper copies of the survey with them for people to complete there and then if they would like to.
By e-mail with any comments or if you would like to join one of the on-line sessions above register your attendance at ABB.PlanningDepartment@wales.nhs.uk and we will arrange to send you a link for the session.
