Trust Board

Our Trust Board heads up a governance structure made up of key committees that provide assurance to the Board about different aspects of our work. Good governance leads to better patient care and allows the Trust Board to demonstrate proper accountability to local people for the safe running of their health service.

Trust Board meeting dates and papers

Our board of directors (the Trust board) meets in public six times a year to discuss a wide range of issues. Due to patient confidentiality, some items may be discussed in private.  When necessary, the Trust board will pass a motion to move to private session when members of the public will be asked to leave.
