About South West Yorkshire Partnership NHS Foundation Trust
South West Yorkshire Partnership is a specialist NHS Foundation Trust - established in 2002 - that provides community, mental health and learning disability services to the people of Barnsley, Calderdale, Kirklees and Wakefield. We also provide some medium secure (forensic) services to the whole of Yorkshire and the Humber too.
Our Community Partnership
Over 1 million people live in Barnsley, Calderdale, Kirklees and Wakefield across urban and rural communities from a range of diverse backgrounds. We aim to match the community’s needs with locally sensitive and efficient services along with a workforce that is reflective of the population we serve. We work from a variety of sites as well as with people in their own homes.
We work with other local NHS organisations to provide comprehensive health care to people in our area. Working in partnership is very important to us and is vital if we are to continue delivering high quality services for local people. The Trust works and connects with both Integrated Care System (ICS) in South Yorkshire and West Yorkshire.
Working in partnership also means working with the members of our foundation trust, who can have a say in how we run the Trust and how they wish our services to be developed. Over 11,000 local people have joined us as members, and our staff are also members.
We currently employ around 4,600 staff, in both clinical and non-clinical support services.
The Trust is seeking to appoint two outstanding and unique individuals, one of whom will have a clinical or public health background, to join our strong and stable Board to complement the skills currently represented and support it to meet the Trust’s exciting and demanding agenda.
