The ALGG SPG document is guidance that is supplementary to London Plan policies. While it does not have the same formal development plan status as these policies, it has been formally adopted by the Mayor as supplementary guidance under his powers under the Greater London Authority Act 1999 (as amended). Adoption followed a period of public consultation, and a summary of the comments received and the responses of the Mayor to those comments is available on the Greater London Authority website. It will therefore be a material consideration in drawing up development plan documents and in taking planning decisions.

EXECUTIVE SUMMARY H LEWISHAM AND GREENWICH NHS TRUST WAS FORMED IN OCTOBER 2013 The organisation faced early challenges and period of instability. Initial uncertainty about services – the future of some of our key services were unclear – national decision was taken to overturn radical plans for reconfiguration Issues with our workforce – illustrated through high vacancy rates Some progress in service redesign and cross-site working, but this was not consistent Financial instability – we missed our financial targets These factors meant that we faced real challenges progressing our plans for the future. IT WAS CLEAR WE NEEDED TO STABILISE THE TRUST AND SERVICES LGT entered 2018 facing challenges on every front – workforce, quality, performance and finance. This meant that we were compelled to put some of our more ambitious plans, for example for the redevelopment of our sites, on hold while we concentrated on some of the basics. WE HAVE MADE SUBSTANTIAL PROGRESS DURING THE LAST TWO AND A HALF YEARS Three years ago our vacancy rates were among the highest in London (17%), today they are among the lowest (below 9%) • While our overall CQC rating remains Requires Improvement, we have made demonstrable improvement across all areas of our quality dashboard and are now rated good for well led.
