The nomination window to become a CWP governor opens on Thursday 4 September . It closes on Friday 19 September.
Chair Isla Wilson said: “We know the NHS means so much to our communities and has been a topic of discussion nationally for some time. People take pride in our NHS but also often have valuable opinions on how we can improve. We are asking local people to make a difference by becoming an NHS governor, representing the views of their community and influencing key decisions.”
“We have openings for public governors in Wirral and East Cheshire, as well as a governor for the rest of England. If you want to be a voice for your community and are passionate about improving healthcare services, please get in touch.”
