Members and governors are at the heart of our organisation. Members provide us with feedback, local knowledge and support on a voluntary basis.
By becoming a member of South London and Maudsley NHS Foundation Trust ('the Trust') you will be able to have a greater influence in how the Trust develops and will receive information and feedback.
The governors, with the support of our members, help make sure that our work is in keeping with our values.
