Local people invited to NHS Trust’s AGM

Local people are invited to the South West Yorkshire Mental Health Trust’s annual general meeting. The meeting is an opportunity to hear the Trust’s news from the last year and plans for the future, including its application to become a Foundation Trust. Foundation Trusts are different type of NHS organisations which are run locally with local people as members.
