We’re using our position as an NHS Foundation Trust to strengthen our ties with the local community. We have a large and growing membership, and we’re always encouraging people to join our Trust as members. Members are kept informed of what is happening in the Trust, and their advice is sought on ways we can improve the effectiveness and responsiveness of our services.  Our membership can also help us champion the importance of good health and well-being to the wider public. To read more about becoming involved with the Trust, click here.

Our members also elect the public constituency of the Assembly of Governors. The Assembly meets on a regular basis to hear about and discuss developments in the Trust. These meetings are open to the public. Click here to consult minutes from Assembly meetings and to read about the Assembly of Governors.
