Board meetings
The NHS England Board is committed to openness and transparency and conducts as much of its business as possible in a session that members of the public are welcome to attend and observe, subject to available space.
Upcoming meeting
Our next NHS England public board meeting will take place on Thursday 5 February 2026. Please note that dates and times may be subject to change, so please check back regularly for updates.
Members of the public, media and other interested parties can watch a live video stream of the Board meeting.
Attending a Board meeting
The Board meeting on 5 February 2026 will be held in Bournemouth, Dorset. Unfortunately, due to venue capacity constraints, we are unable to accommodate members of the public in person for this meeting.
Asking a question
As a meeting held in public, there will not be an opportunity for members of the public to directly address the board.
However, questions can be submitted in advance to england.boardqa@nhs.net no later than 12 noon on Wednesday 28 January 2026.
Public questions will be limited to 1 question per person/organisation and should be no more than 100 words in length.
Questions must only relate to matters within the powers and functions of the NHS England Board.
A response will be provided at the meeting or in writing (within 20 working days following the date of the meeting).
Any questions received later than the stipulated deadline will be deferred and considered for the next most relevant Board meeting.
