Do you want to make a difference in your community? Do you
care about healthcare and want to get involved in the NHS?
You can do something by standing in The Rotherham NHS
Foundation Trust’s Governor Elections.
If you care about your local community and about the
services the Trust provides to you, your family and friends, then please read
on.
You don’t need special qualifications or experience, you
are only required to become
a Member of the Trust.
Public Governors are elected by
other Members to sit on the Council of Governors. The
Council of Governors is a group of people
like you who help set the direction for the future of hospital and community
services.
Being a Governor means you can have a say in helping to
plan future NHS services, and in turn you will have an impact on how healthcare
is provided in Rotherham.
Gavin Rimmer has been a Governor for almost eight years,
and in 2018 became the Trust’s Lead Governor.
“Following the past two years of the Covid pandemic, it’s
vital that we now focus on what is important for Rotherham and the people
living here.
“My own experiences as a patient and parent led me to stand
for election in 2014. I am passionate about improving healthcare locally and
being a Governor allows me to make a difference, represent the views of the
Trust members and the interests of the public.
“We’re keen to gain more representation from across
Rotherham to ensure the Trust is doing its best for all our local communities.
Don’t let this opportunity pass you by, this is your chance to help your
community by joining the Council of Governors.”
