This will include presentations from Sara Munro, our Chief Executive; Dawn Hanwell, our Chief Financial Officer; and Ian Andrews, our Lead Governor about our work and performance over the 2024/25 financial year. This will include:

  • What the Council of Governors has been doing over the last year on behalf of the members that they represent.
  • Our annual accounts for the past year and reports on how we have used our money to provide and develop our services.
  • What the Trust has done over the last year and what we want to achieve in the coming year.
  • A question-and-answer session with the panel facilitated by the Chair of the Trust

A complimentary finger buffet lunch will be provided following the AGM.

From 1pm we’ll be hosting our annual celebration event where we’ll be showcasing some fantastic examples of how we’ve improved the lives of the communities we serve by working in partnership with our staff, service users and carers, and our health and care partners.
