Members of the public can now nominate themselves to stand as a Public Governor candidate for the Royal Devon University Healthcare NHS Foundation Trust.

Royal Devon Governors provide a direct connection between the Trust, the communities we serve and our partners. Governors have a wide variety of experiences and backgrounds, but what they share is a real passion for helping to shape local health services in a way that best meets the needs of patients and the public.

An election was held earlier in the year and 9 new Governors were appointed. This election includes the remaining 6 public Governor posts, with terms of office of one, two and three years available.

For more information about being a Governor, including an introductory guide, FAQs and how to request a nomination pack, please visit our Governor elections page. The deadline for nominations is 5pm on Tuesday 11 October 2022.

Please note that if you wish to stand for election as a Public Governor, you will need to become a member of the Trust if you are not already.
