Kent Community Health NHS Foundation Trust (KCHFT) has a legally constituted board made up of executive and non-executive members. The board of directors sets strategic direction and then monitors performance and progress.
The board is made up of non-executive directors who use the skill and experience gained from the private, public and voluntary sectors to help run the trust, but who do not have day-to-day managerial responsibilities within the Trust; and executive directors who are paid employees with clear areas of work responsibility within the Trust.
The board is held to account by our council of governors which is made up of members of the public elected by you to represent your views.
