Comfort Akinbobola

Constituency: Public: Leeds
elected to the Council of Governors

My name is Comfort Akinbobola, and I am a resident of Leeds. I am passionate about our community and ensuring our local health services are the best they can be. My personal and professional experiences have given me a strong appreciation for the mental health and learning disability services that the NHS provides. I have seen how much of a positive impact the right care and support can have on people’s lives.

My motivation for becoming a governor stems from my desire to give back to our community. I believe it is important for the public to have a voice in how our health services are run. I want to represent the views of our people and ensure that the Trust hears what is important to them. My goal is to help LYPFT continue to improve and shape its mental health and learning disability services for the better.

During my time as a governor, I want to be a strong link between the public and the Trust. I will listen to the experiences of service users, carers, and the public. I aim to support the Trust in its mission to provide outstanding, people-centred care. I am committed to helping LYPFT be a place where everyone is treated with respect and dignity, and I will work to ensure the Trust is accountable to the community it serves.
