Allied Health Professionals Suffolk CIC’s (AHPS) approval to become a social enterprise following a staff ‘Right to Request’ to the Department of Health (DH) was announced in November 2010. AHPS has operated independently as a community interest company (CIC) since July 2011.

Our aim and purpose as a staff-led social enterprise is to provide high-quality, accessible health care at the point of need to help people return to optimal health and stay healthy. We work with our staff, patients and commissioners to develop a continually improving range of services to meet their needs effectively and efficiently.

Our philosophy and our values are to ensure our patient’s needs are at the centre of everything we do by delivering evidence-based, effective care and treatment. We have developed a responsive, needs-based service, focused on delivering individualised patient care that retains dignity and respect for all.  In doing this we provide our staff with the means to maintain the highest professional development standards. We act with pride and integrity; we are open and honest and enjoy our work.
