Foundation Trust Governors EventThe event was a chance for Governors of the three foundation trusts (Sheffield Teaching Hospitals, Sheffield Children's Hospital and Sheffield Health and Social Care Trust) and members of Sheffield LINk to meet and discuss common issues. A number of Governing Board members attended the event.

LINk support staff worked closely with Trust membership officers to develop and facilitate this successful event. It was the first time governors from all three Foundation Trusts have met. At the event, Mike Smith and Azizzum Akhtar did a presentation to raise awareness of Sheffield LINk and then facilitated a discussion to find out how people felt the Foundation Trust Governors and Sheffield LINk could work together.This event was successful in raising awareness and developing communication between the Foundation Trusts and Sheffield LINk.
