Who's involved

The organisations involved in the Lancashire and South Cumbria Provider Collaborative are:

• Blackpool Hospitals NHS Foundation Trust
• East Lancashire Hospitals NHS Trust
• Lancashire and South Cumbria NHS Foundation Trust
• Lancashire Teaching Hospitals NHS Foundation Trust
• University Hospitals of Morecambe Bay NHS Foundation Trust

While the Provider Collaboration Board currently consists of the five provider NHS trusts, our ambition for the future is to create a wider collaborative with other providers.

This is about a new way of collaborative working; the trusts themselves will remain as statutory bodies, and each chair and chief executive will still be accountable for their own separate organisations.
