News and media

Our communications team manages all media enquiries and requests for filming and photography. We are keen to promote our work and aim to respond positively and openly to all reasonable requests.

Journalists must contact the communications team first – do not approach our staff directly. The team is in the best position to find the information you need quickly or provide an authoritative source for your story.

They can also:

  • help you find a clinical expert
  • provide case studies (subject to patient consent)
  • oversee filming
  • provide media support during a major incident

The team reserves the right to decline requests where they conflict with operational requirements.

Social media


For health messages, news and events, join us on social media!

The main Trust social media accounts are managed by our Communications Team. We aim to respond to comments as soon as possible, although we may not always be able to respond to every message we receive.

Please note that we will not be able to comment on individual cases or respond to medical queries via social media. If you’d like to discuss an experience you’ve had with our services, please speak to our Patient Experience Team, who provide information, advice and support to patients, their families and carers.
