North London NHS Foundation Trust to explore merger by acquisition of Tavistock and Portman NHS Foundation Trust
North London NHS Foundation Trust and Tavistock and Portman NHS Foundation Trust have confirmed plans to explore merger by acquisition of Tavistock and Portman NHS Foundation Trust. The transaction will significantly enhance and strengthen children and adult mental health services in North London.
We hope this transaction will also end uncertainty and increase opportunities for valued service users, staff and students at the Tavistock and Portman and establish North London Foundation Trust as a leader in mental health research and education.
Both parties intend to complete the process by 1 April 2026 and focus on creating improved care quality and stability for patients, students and staff.
