Being a Foundation Trust means that we have more control of how we shape the services we provide to reflect the needs and priorities of our patients and local community.

Our Council of Governors ensures that we listen to the views of our patients and those living locally, our staff and other interested parties so that we can make improvements to our services and the information about these services. We provide high quality elective and emergency care services to meet the day-to-day needs of our local community.

The Trust is one of the largest local employers with more than 15,000 staff working at Liverpool University Hospitals NHS Foundation Trust (LUHFT) and also delivering services in the community.

Being a Governor at LUHFT provides an opportunity to play a pivotal role in influencing how decisions are made and services developed, to have your voice heard and represent the views of others.

Voting has now opened, please use your vote to make sure our elected Council has the best possible support from members of the Trust.

We are now seeking votes for Governors in the following Constituencies:

  • Public: City Region North - 5 seats
  • Public: City Region South - 3 seats
  • Staff: Allied Health Professionals - 1 seat
  • Staff: Medical Practitioners and Dentists - 1 seat
