The Trust is in the early stages of exploring plans to redevelop the department, with feedback being used to help shape the service in the future and to ensure it continues to meet the needs of local families.

The session will take place at on Tuesday 30 June 2026, 10am – 12pm, in the Seminar Room at Royal Bolton Hospital’s Emergency Department.

Dr. Rauf Munshi, Medical Director at Bolton NHS Foundation Trust, said:

“Our children’s Emergency Department is there for people when they need us most and we want to make sure we’re providing the care, treatment and support that families in Bolton expect.

“Your voices are extremely valuable to see how we can improve our department together in the next twelve to eighteen months as we continue to improve the way we provide the service. We also want to hear from the experiences of children and young people and are encouraging families to bring examples of what their child would like to see too.

“Every experience in the Emergency Department is unique, and we want to hear from people right across Bolton’s diverse communities. We look forward to meeting you later this month.”

Space is limited to 20 people. To register your interest in attending please email EDForum@boltonft.nhs.uk or call 01204 390252.
