It forecast an annual turnover of more than £500 million.[1] No more than 40 redundancies among the 8,500 staff were expected because of the merger.[2]

It uses Nasstar’s OneConsultation platform for secure online consultations. This was installed across the trust in March 2020 hurriedly because of the COVID-19 pandemic in England. More than 80,000 online consultations had taken place by February 2022. [3]
