Through the ‘Framework for Pain Management Service Delivery – Implementation Plan’ we are promoting a more consistent approach to specialist services in each Health Board; we have invested in a new Pain Service Managers’ Network. This group is working through shared issues faced by specialist pain services such as resourcing and financial challenges and identifying opportunities to solve these through sharing of best practice and different ways of working.
So far in the current parliamentary session, excluding 2025-26, we have allocated £1.3 billion of funding through our heat in buildings schemes, and I am delighted that our 2025-26 budget commitment is to invest an additional £300 million in our heat in buildings programmes.
Work is ongoing across a number of areas, such as diversification of income into the sector and strategies to learn from best practice in order to increase non-public forms of funding in the sector.
