NHS Portsmouth CCG to appoint new chairman

NHS Portsmouth Clinical Commissioning Group will next week appoint a new chairman of its governing board.

The move follows Dr Tim Wilkinson’s decision to step down as chairman, and at a meeting in public next Wednesday, the governing board is asked to approve the appointment of 
Dr Elizabeth Fellows as the new chairman.

Dr Wilkinson said: ‘As a leader it’s judging the right time 
to step down especially having identified and encouraged 
the development of your successor.

‘Now is the right time for me.’
