Nominated Governor for Local Authority Councils

Term of Office:  3 Years – Ending at 2022 Annual/Special Members’ Meeting

I have been a Councillor since 2014 and represent Didsbury East ward on Manchester City Council.  As a Councillor, I have sat on Manchester City Council’s Health Scrutiny Committee and I have chaired task groups focused on evaluating and recommending improvements to the Council’s homecare services and its public health services.

As a Nominated Governor, I see my role as being a link with councillor colleagues in Manchester and the residents we represent as we seek to improve hospital services across the Trust. Also, I believe it is vital that hospital services link up well with social care and with public health, and in my Governor role capacity will be actively promoting this.
