Governor information

Interested in becoming a governor?

All members can stand for election to represent the area they live in.  We have divided the areas into ‘constituencies’ based on your postcode, similar to what happens in a local council election.

Our next elections are in March 2012.  For more information on the elections click here.

The role of the Council of Governors

We want our Council of Governors to have a real and substantial role, creating relationships between us and the community we serve.

The council role includes:

  • advising our Board of Directors on decisions about the strategic direction of the trust in ways consistent with the needs of members and the wider community;
  • representing the trust’s views to the membership; and
  • ensuring the trust complies with the terms of authorisation as a Foundation Trust;
