We are welcoming members of the public, staff and stakeholders to attend our Annual Members’ Meeting on Wednesday 16 September 2026, in the hospital’s Education Centre, from 10am. It’s also an opportunity to meet our new Chair, Sarah Jones, and our Governors.
The formal business of the Annual Members’ meeting starts at 10am in the Lecture Theatre, where you will hear about the Trust’s developments and be able to join the conversation about our plans for the future.
The meeting will offer a review of the Trust’s performance over the past year, along with insights into future planning, current challenges and priorities. Those coming along will hear directly from Board members about the work being done to improve care and support the health and wellbeing of patients and their families.
Chair of Airedale NHS Foundation Trust Sarah Jones says:
“Our Annual Members’ Meeting is an important opportunity to reflect on what we have achieved together over the past year, and sharing the latest priorities for this year.”
“I am particularly looking forward to meeting members of our local communities, staff, patients and partners and sharing the latest news on our new hospital.”
“Your views and involvement are vital in helping us shape the future of healthcare services for our communities, and I would encourage anyone with an interest in Airedale to come along and join the conversation.”
Attendees are encouraged to submit questions in advance by emailing anhsft.corporategovernance@nhs.net or telephone 01535 294540.
Questions can be submitted up until 5pm on Friday 11 September 2026 or asked at the meeting. All responses to questions asked will be posted on the Trust website www.airedale-trust.nhs.uk.
There will be free parking in P3 car park for anyone attending the meeting. You can still collect your parking ticket but if you press the buzzer on your way out and say you’ve been at the meeting, the barrier will be lifted for you.
