About us and our strategy

About our strategy

Our organisational strategy sets out what we want to achieve between 2021 and 2023. It brings together our objectives, and outlines:

• Our vision for KMPT
• Three overarching aims and clear objectives that will help us to deliver our vision
• What we need to put in place to help us to build capability and capacity to deliver – including the key ‘enabler’ strategies which have been co-produced with our staff and people with lived-experience and their carers. These ‘enabler’ strategies sit underneath our organisational strategy, and cover people and culture, clinical technology,
  informatics, quality and research, and estates. These will help bring our ambition to life.
