West Hertfordshire Hospitals NHS Trust manages Watford General Hospital, Hemel Hempstead Hospital and St Albans City Hospital and we are applying to become a Foundation Trust (FT). FTs have Members and manage their own finances, including keeping any surpluses at the end of the year. Members are kept informed of what's happening in the Trust and are asked for their views on future plans for hospital services.

Membership is FREE, and Members:

• receive a welcome pack with access to discounts schemes and offers (including a free eco-friendly bag)
• are sent regular information on what's happening in the West Herts Hospitals NHS Trust (Watford New hospital etc)
• get invitations to local and national events e.g. health talks, parenting classes
• can stand as Governors if they wish when we have achieved FT status

It’s free and easy to join: on-line at: http://www.westhertshospitals.nhs.uk/ft and click on ‘Become a Member’ in the top toolbar.

Alternatively you can call our Membership Line: 01923 436280 and leave your name, address or email and telephone number, or request a Freepost membership form.
