The Leeds Teaching Hospitals NHS Trust


About Us


Trust Board


The Trust is governed by a Board of Directors consisting of both Executive Directors, appointed to specific roles within the organisation, and Non-Executive Directors, who do not work for the Trust but bring a range of external expertise with them.

The Board meets bi-monthly in public, usually on a Thursday at St James’s University Hospital. A patient representative and a staff council member also attend and take part in discussions.

The media attend and report on proceedings in the local press, and any member of the public is very welcome to come along as an observer.

Board agendas, papers and minutes of meetings, as well as future dates of meetings, are available in the Board Meetings area.

 

Members of the Trust Board are as follows
