Board meetings

Our board of directors meet around six times a year to discuss performance, new developments and make decisions on how the trust is run.

The trust board:

• adds value and promotes successes
• provides leadership
• sets the strategic direction
• monitors and manages performance
• safeguards the trust’s values
• ensures obligations to stakeholders are met
• constructively challenge and contribute to developing strategy
• scrutinise the performance of management in meeting goals and standards
• satisfy themselves that financial information is accurate and that internal systems and controls are working effectively
• ensure the board acts in the best interests of the public and is fully accountable for the services provided and funds used

Members of the public and staff are welcome to observe the board meetings.
