About us
Berkshire Healthcare NHS Foundation Trust (BHFT) was
formed in April 2001 and successfully became licensed as a Foundation Trust in
May 2007. In April 2011 the community services which were previously
the provider arms of NHS Berkshire East and NHS Berkshire West PCTs merged with
the Trust.
The main centres of population are Reading in the
West of the County and Slough in the East.
Within Berkshire there are also major populations at Newbury, Wokingham
in the West and Bracknell, Maidenhead, Windsor and Ascot in the East, as well
and many significant urban developments in smaller towns forming essentially a
single conurbation along the M4 Corridor.
Berkshire is characterised by concentrations of
population and large rural areas. It
includes some of the most affluent and least deprived communities in the
country, but also has pockets of markedly deprived wards.
The Trust is part of two Integrated Care Systems (Frimley ICS and
Buckinghamshire, Oxfordshire & Berkshire West ICS) and partners with six
local unitary authorities. The trust has an outstanding
CQC rating.
