Trust Board meetings

The Trust Board meets in public on the second Thursday of every other month. This meeting is open to members of the public and all staff and we always have time for questions.  Come along and be a part of the meeting.

If you have a disability and need help to come to meetings or have any questions, contact us in advance on 020 3513 6385 or trustsecretariat@swlstg.nhs.uk.

The venue is usually Conference Room G, Building 32 (the new modular building near the Burntwood Lane entrance) Springfield Hospital, London SW17 7DJ.

The agenda, board papers and minutes of these meetings are posted on the Trust website as they become available.

Important information regarding Board meetings in public during the COVID-19 pandemic

TRUST BOARD MEETINGS

The current plan is that board meetings for the rest of the year will operate on the same basis as they have since April. They will be monthly instead of bimonthly and like most Trusts they will continue to take place virtually as a part B meeting.

Papers will be published in advance and reports of meetings will also be out on the website and InSite. Written questions are very welcome as long as we have them the day before the meeting to david.lee@swlstg.nhs.uk

As soon as possible following our Board meetings, we will publish to our website a summary of key decisions and actions agreed by the Board, along with the answers to any questions from members of the public. While we recognise that this doesn’t make up for the fact that the public will not be able to come along to our meetings, we hope this enables you to continue to see how the Board is taking decisions at this critical time.

Given the uncertainty as to how long the current restrictions will be required, the position set out above will remain in place until further notice. However, we look forward to welcoming back members of the public to our Board meetings as soon as the necessary steps to limit the transmission of COVID-19 are lifted.

The current schedule is set out below. The arrangements will remain under review and if any change takes place we will publicise this. Arrangements for 2021 will be confirmed closer to the time

Forthcoming Dates 2021:

Please note: Temporary restriction of vehicular access via Burntwood Lane 

From 30 March 2020 for six months, there will be no vehicular access through the site or access to car parks from Burntwood Lane.  This is due to work starting  on the section of road between West Wing,  (Trust HQ, Building 15) and Building 32 (Recovery College, Canteen and Conference Centre).

Vehicular access to Ronald Gibson House, Ghodse and High Trees will be via Burntwood Lane only. All other buildings including Car Park B will only have vehicular access via the Glenburnie Road entrance.

The bus stop will remain where it is allowing patients to attend appointments via public transport and pedestrian access will still be retained.

We appreciate that these changes can be frustrating and we apologise for the inconvenience but as we are sure you can appreciate these are essential infrastructure works that need to be completed to enable the new development.

If you have any concerns or questions, please talk to someone from the service in the first instance or email estatemodernisation@swlstg.nhs.uk
