Hillingdon Council budget monitoring position
Hillingdon Council is facing a projected £6.5 million overspend in health and social care for 2025/26 due to rising demand.
Hillingdon Council is currently addressing a projected £6.5 million overspend in health and social care for the 2025/26 financial year, as reported in March 2026. This significant overspend, which saw an adverse movement of £0.8 million from the previous quarter's forecast, is attributed to increasing client demand and market pressures, according to a report reviewed by the Health and Social Care Select Committee.
The council's budget monitoring position, which details current spending against its allocated budget, continues to be a focus as it manages financial pressures. The Health and Social Care Select Committee reviewed the report in March 2026, noting the impact of escalating demand for services on the council's finances. No further discussions or decisions are currently scheduled.
