Media
The communications team provides a point of contact for journalists to respond to all media enquiries.
We are happy to help journalists represent the Trust accurately, so please do get in touch to ensure your facts and information are up-to-date before publishing your story.
Our media team is responsible for:
- Responding to media queries
- Arranging interviews with our nationally and internationally renowned experts who can talk about some of the Trust’s specialist topics
- Managing filming and photography requests. We receive documentary, location and broadcast filming requests on a regular basis – we consider all proposals on an individual basis and will try to accommodate proposals where possible, if appropriate. No photography or filming is permitted without prior arrangement and agreement. Our patients always come first and we have a duty to protect their safety and confidentiality. Anyone found filming or taking photographs on the trust premises without the permission of the trust’s communications team will be asked to leave by the security department and may face prosecution. Unless agreed otherwise, film crews and photographers must be accompanied by a member of the Communications Team at all times.
Media enquiries
For all media enquiries Monday to Friday, 9am – 5pm, please email communications@swlstg.nhs.uk where a member of the team will review and action your request.
If you have an urgent query outside working hours and on weekends and bank holidays, please ring our contact centre on 020 3513 5000 and ask to speak to a member of the communications team.
