In order to help prevent the spread of COVID-19, the Trust has taken the decision, for the foreseeable future, not to hold the Board of Directors and Council of Governors meetings in public.  The meetings will be held via a video conferencing facility which will allow Governors who represent the public to participate remotely.

This is in line with national guidance regarding COVID-19. It is particularly in relation to social distancing measures to reduce social interaction between people in order to reduce the transmission of coronavirus (COVID-19). All minutes from the meetings will be published on the website as usual.    

We will publish notification on the Trust website when the meetings can be re-introduced.
