Engagement is at the heart of what we do as an NHS Foundation Trust - through our members and our service users and their carers, such as through the Friends and Family Test. We also regularly engage with the public, and sometimes carry out formal consultations when significant service changes are proposed.
Public engagement

Public consultation
