Welcome to the North Tees and Hartlepool NHS Foundation Trust Election Portal allowing you to find information on the candidates standing for election to the Council of Governors.

As a member of North Tees and Hartlepool NHS Foundation Trust you have a vital role in helping to shape the future of healthcare in the area. One of the ways in which you can help to do this is by voting in the Election to the Council of Governors. Voting packs have now been sent out for the Stockon, Hartlepool and Easington Constituencies.

The Council of Governors is vital to our work as a Trust. It is consulted upon regarding the way local health services are delivered and is responsible for appointing the Trust Chairman and Non-executive Directors. The Governors also have to approve the appointment of the Chief Executive.

Most importantly the Governors are accountable to you as a member of the Trust and form a vital link to the communities that the Trust serves.
