Hampshire Hospitals NHS Foundation Trust (HHFT) is part of phase 2 of this plan and the Modernising our Hospitals and Health Services (MOHHS) programme has been given the green light to go to the next stage of developing its plans (with the aim of being ready to deliver between 2025-2030). This is an exciting opportunity to be part of developing a new state of the art hospital and health infrastructure for the population of North and Mid Hampshire.
