Health Secretary Matt Hancock has visited North Devon District Hospital, where he met the team and patients, and confirmed future investment in local facilities.

“The Secretary of State was impressed by the level of innovation he saw, and how we have responded to the challenges faced as the most remote acute hospital in mainland England,” said chief executive of the hospital trust Suzanne Tracey. “He also said that NDHT has a really positive vibe to it, and this is testament to the efforts made every day by our staff.”

North Devon District Hospital is set for a multi-million pound redevelopment by 2030, as part of a national £3.7 billion Government funded programme.
