About the Trust
The Trust is a statutory public body, which became an NHS Foundation Trust (public benefit corporation under Section 35 of the National Health Service Act) on 1 February 2008. It is part of the National Health Service, registered with the Care Quality Commission (CQC).
The Trust is one of the largest specialist mental health providers in the country, providing inpatient and community-based mental health care for people living in Bolton, the city of Manchester, Salford, Trafford and Wigan, and a wide range of specialist mental health and addiction services across Greater Manchester, the north west of England and beyond. We also provide Health and Justice Services in a number of custodial settings. We employ over 6,600 members of staff and deliver services from 109 locations with an annual income of £522.7million. In a 12-month period we expect to meet the needs of around 97,533 service users.
The Trust’s performance is scrutinised by the Foundation Trust regulator, NHS Improvement, and the Care Quality Commission.
