A consultation on proposals to update the Trust's governance arrangements took place from the 22nd May to the 22nd July and has now closed.

We'd like to thank everyone who took part in our consultation on proposals to bring the Trust into the 21st century.  Over the next few weeks, all the responses will be carefully considered by staff and trustees. An analysis of the submissions will be undertaken and the Board will make a decision on whether any amendments to the proposals will be made in response to the consultation. Any decisions made by the Board must be in the best interests of the charity and will be fed back into the Bill which is currently being drafted.

The consultation responses will be made available to the public in due course. 

Thank you again for taking the time to complete the consultation questionnaire and share your views.
