We have introduced Hospital Management Boards at Aintree, the Royal, Broadgreen and Liverpool Clinical Laboratories to give each of our sites greater autonomy and the ability to have increased oversight of their opportunities, risks and issues.
These changes ensure that we have a clear vision of where we want to be, and the leadership capacity, capability and appropriate governance to get us there.
The governance arrangements provide strengthened control, with more decisions made a site level and less escalated to an executive team level, which will enable more rapid decision making.
We operate as one organisation, sharing the same vision and values. Our Executive Team have oversight, making decisions that impact LUHFT at a Trust level, but Hospital Management Boards have devolved control of aspects that enable their effective running and ability to respond.
The Executive Managing Directors of each Hospital Management Board are voting members of the Trust Board, which maintains the connectivity between the Board and each site.
To help explain these changes further, we've created some additional resources. Please watch our short animation below, or view our information booklet for staff here or more details including who's who at each of our sites.

Roadshows were held across each of our sites to give colleagues the opportunity to meet their new Executive Managing Directors (Royal/Aintree) and Hospital Leadership Teams (all sites). The sessions were led by our Chief Executive, James Sumner, and included an overview of what we have achieved as a Trust over the past 12 months, an introduction to our new governance structures, an overview of how we are working to improve culture at LUHFT and provided an opportunity for colleagues to ask any questions they may have.
