Governors

Collecting and Publishing Trust Board and Local Governing Body Data
Diversity is important and we want our Trust Board and Local Governing Bodies to be increasingly reflective of the communities they serve.
Provision of diversity data is voluntary. We have asked all Local Governors and Trustees to submit their data on a voluntary basis. At this point only 45% of Local Governors and Trustees have submitted data. This is felt to be insufficient to be a true reflection of governance within our Trust and therefore at this stage we have no data to publish. This will be monitored on an annual basis.
