Neighbourhoods


With populations of around 30,000 to 50,000, Neighbourhoods are typically served by groups of GP practices working with NHS community services, social care and other providers to deliver more co-ordinated and proactive services, including through Primary Care Networks. At this level, typical activities include supporting primary care services, developing multi-disciplinary teams and delivery of preventive measures for the local population.

What our clients say...

“We commissioned Mills & Reeve to develop a legal agreement for public and independent sector provider organisations working together. The work was potentially extremely challenging and complex with little precedent. We were very impressed with the manner in which the firm approached and facilitated the work which ensured all organisations were on board and we managed to achieve consensus.”
