NHS Foundation Trusts are accountable to their members and have a Council of Governors (CoG)to represent the views of the public, staff and partners to the Board of Directors.
The Council has 22 Governors divided into three categories - public, staff and appointed. 12 Governors represent public members; this includes eight representing the neighbourhood areas of Salford, and four representing the out of Salford area. As a member you will automatically be registered in one of these areas depending on where you live.
Five Governors also represent staff members and five Governors are appointed from partner organisations. The Governors meet four times a year to feedback on their work for the Trust. All meetings are open to the public and are a chance for you to see the work they do on your behalf.
