Welcome 

Thanks for taking some time to complete this survey. The Executive Board at Manchester University NHS Foundation Trust (MFT) want to know how we as a Trust, engage with partners in the VCSE Sector and what, if any, working relationships we have with them. With the changes to health and social care provision across Greater Manchester, more and more emphasis is being placed on joint working and co-production of services. This survey will allow the Board to see what is currently happening across MFT, but also where the gaps are, and to identify how and where we can start to work in co-operation with our community partners.

We’re looking to gain an understanding of your experience of working with MFT, both now and before the various hospital trusts (Central Manchester University Hospitals NHS Foundation Trust, University Hospital South Manchester NHS Foundation Trust, Trafford General Hospital and Altrincham Hospital) joined together in October 2017. We would like to hear your opinions & views and about any experiences - both good and not so good – that you have had of working with various parts of the Trust.

The results of this survey will be made available in February 2018. Please encourage colleagues and other partner agencies to complete this survey too – it’s just as important for us to know what ISN’T happening or HASN’T happened, as much as it is to know what does take place.

Thank you.
