North West Anglia NHS Foundation Trust is committed to the Freedom of Information (FOI) Act 2000.

Understandably, our resources have been diverted to support our front-line colleagues who are working tirelessly to provide care for our patients, and to those in need of our services.
As an organisation we strive to be transparent and to work with an open culture. But at this time, the care of our patients and the safety of our staff takes precedent. It is therefore likely that responses to some FOI requests for information will be delayed. We apologise for this position in advance, and will endeavour to provide you with as much information as we can, as soon as we are able.
The Information Commissioners Office (ICO) has recognised the current situation in the NHS.
In the meantime if you have any questions regarding this request please contact us directly quoting the reference number above.
