As we come to the end of 2025, we have much to reflect on. It has been a year of significant change and challenge, as we’ve seen the publication of the NHS 10 Year Plan and we’ve continued to transform our services for our patients for the future in a challenging context. 

We want to extend a thank you to everyone who has supported us throughout 2025 - including our staff, volunteers, Governors, Leagues of Friends, our patients, communities and members, fundraisers and charities, partners in the wider healthcare system and local government. 

We have recorded a short video message on behalf of the Board of Directors, which we hope you can take a few moments to watch.

With warm wishes on behalf of the Royal Devon Board of Directors,

Dame Shan Morgan, Chair

Sam Higginson, Chief Executive Officer
