Chairman Richard Hibbert said: 'Portsmouth faces many challenging health issues with higher levels of smoking, alcohol-related problems and obesity than most areas across the south.
'But there are many initiatives under way to address these and the many other areas of interest or concern which people might want to ask us about.
'This could include our £20m planned redevelopment of the St Mary's Hospital site into a community health campus when the acute services move to Queen Alexandra Hospital, Cosham.'
Chief executive Tracy Sanders said: 'There are certain things we are required to do at our annual meeting, such as giving our financial report.
'But we want to encourage people as possible to attend and make it as engaging as possible.'
