  • Don’t miss the deadline to stand in our Council of Governors election!

There is still time to get your nomination in if you want to stand for election as a Public Governor of our Foundation Trust. All nominations for the 3 seats available to Public members must be received by 5pm on Monday 6th August.

Why not get involved and become a voice for patients, their families, carers and NHS staff?  All qualifying Public members aged 16 years or over can nominate themselves to stand for election.  You do not need specific qualifications for the Governor role, just an interest in healthcare and a commitment to representing members to the best of your ability.

If you would like to nominate yourself as a candidate for election as a Public Governor, please contact Returning Officer Ciara Norris at Electoral Reform Services (ERS) for a nomination form:

To find out more about the election process, including the seats that are open for election, and to download a Candidate Information Pack, please go to our Governor Election webpage. If you are not currently a member but are interested in standing for election as a Governor, please complete an on-line Membership Application Form or alternatively you can contact the Foundation Trust Membership Office for a paper form:
