THE first annual members meeting of Taunton and Somerset NHS Foundation Trust takes place at 12noon next Thursday at the County Ground, Taunton.

The meeting will receive reports from the chairman and chief executive, hear plans for future developments and see a new DVD about the trust.

Trust chairman Ros Wyke said: “Members are really important to us at Musgrove.

“They play an important role in telling us what we’re getting right and where we need to improve.

“They also elect governors, who have a number of significant powers to decide on the future direction of the trust.

“This meeting is a chance for us to report on the last year and our plans for the future, but also a great opportunity to hear from members on their priorities.”
