Council of Governors
Our Council of Governors are the ‘voice’ of local people. They help the Trust make key decisions about our services and hold the Trust Board to account. Most of the Governors who make up our council are voted for by local people (members).
Members of the Trust
Anyone over the age of 14 (if you’re under 16, please check with a parent) can become a member of our Trust. Being a member means you can have your say about how we run our services. You can also elect Governors.
Regulation
All NHS Foundation Trusts are regulated by Monitor – an independent regulator who makes sure we manage our finances and leadership.
The care and treatment we provide is also regulated by the Care Quality Commission (CQC). They make sure we meet government standards.
