Be involved, be active, be a governor - nomination papers now available

07 March 2011

Completed nomination forms must be returned to Electoral Reform Services by noon on Thursday 31 March.

  • Are you interested in the hospital and care about the decisions made?
  • Would you like to be involved in hospital developments?
  • Could you be the voice of the community so decisions made reflect the views of our patients and local community?

If so why not become a governor?

 

This year six positions are available: one staff, two patient and three public governors.

 

To put yourself forward as a candidate all you have to do is be a member of the Trust in the same constituency for which you wish to be a governor, provide two supporters who are similarly members of the same constituency, and request a nomination pack from the Electoral Reform Services, who are our official independent scrutineers. You will be asked to write a short paragraph (no more than 150 words) as an election statement saying why you should be elected – it really is that simple.

 

There are virtually no barriers to becoming a candidate; you just need to believe in the Trust values, have patient care and safety as a core interest, and have a strong belief in the value of public/patient opinion and involvement.

 

Nomination papers are now available - please contact:
