Community health services, including sexual health services in Calderdale from Calderdale Royal and local health centres (Todmorden Health Centre and Broad Street Plaza).

We continue to modernise and invest in our health services to build on our strong reputation. Foundation trusts are public leaders in improving quality in health services and are part of the NHS, yet decisions about their operations are driven by independent boards that listen to their Council of Governors and respond to the needs of their members – patients, staff, and the local community.

Foundation trusts provide what the health service wants while being free to invest quickly in changes to meet local community needs, striving to be the best, and putting patients first.
