We are accountable for the performance and finances of the NHS across Norfolk and Waveney – a total budget of £2 billion a year. Known as NHS Norfolk and Waveney, the organisation works with local people, health and care professionals, and partner organisations to improve the health and wellbeing of our population. The organisation is part of the Norfolk and Waveney Integrated Care System, dedicated to working with partners in local government, the voluntary sector, and others to help the NHS support broader social and economic development and tackle inequalities in health outcomes.

Our main offices are based at 8th Floor of Norfolk County Hall, Martineau Lane, Norwich, NR1 2UE; however, we have local offices for the East in Beccles and the West in King’s Lynn, requiring travel across the Norfolk and Waveney footprint as well as out of county as needed.
