Our Board is accountable for the decision making of the organisation.

They make sure that NHS Gloucestershire ICB is making best use of the money available and buying and developing health services that meet the needs of local people.

NHS Gloucestershire ICB Board includes the Chair, Chief Executive and Executive Directors. The Board also has five independent non‑executive members.

In addition to these roles, our Board includes senior members from partner organisations. Representatives from NHS England, South Western Ambulance NHS Foundation Trust and Gloucestershire County Council also attend as participants.

Clustering arrangements with Bristol, North Somerset and South Gloucestershire

From 1 April 2026, NHS Gloucestershire ICB established a Joint Cluster Board with NHS Bristol, North Somerset and South Gloucestershire ICB operating as a committee of both ICB Boards.

The Joint Cluster Board forms part of the transition for the two ICBs to operate as a cluster, following appointment of a joint Chair, Chief Executive, Executive team and Non‑Executive Directors.

NHS Gloucestershire ICB maintains its own Board, which holds responsibility for the governance and decision‑making of the organisation.

Further information about our transition to an ICB cluster is available on our NHS Changes page.
