special edition - post election May 2014 YAS Forum Update You are a valued Member of Yorkshire Ambulance Service NHS Trust (YAS) and I am writing to you to confirm that our YAS Forum elections have now taken place and were a great success. This is a very exciting time for YAS and I look forward to working with our YAS Forum Members to develop local health services to best meet the needs of the communities they represent. On behalf of my Trust Board I would like to warmly congratulate our elected and appointed YAS Forum Members of the Trust. In the meantime if you have any further questions and/or feel that you can help by encouraging your friends and family to become FT Members please email foundationtrust@ yas.nhs.uk or telephone 01924 584567. To welcome them and provide them with a better understanding of how Yorkshire Ambulance Service operates both strategically and operationally, I have arranged for them to receive Members’ Training during May and June. This will give them the opportunity to meet myself and other members of the Trust Board and learn more about the Trust and the role of the YAS Forum. I have also arranged for them to visit our Emergency Operations and NHS 111 Call Centres. Alternatively they can complete a Membership Form online by visiting our website www.yas.nhs.uk/foundationtrust Thank you for your continued support. Yours sincerely The inaugural YAS Forum Meeting will take place on Tuesday 8 July 2014 at the Wilkes Suite, Holiday Inn, Barnsley Road, Dodworth, Barnsley, S75 3JT, from 5.00pm to 7.00pm, where there will be members of the Trust Board present.

Prior to joining YAS, Ali worked at York Teaching Hospital NHS Foundation Trust for six years. During June 2014 the FT Team will be hosting a National Volunteer Road show throughout North and East Yorkshire. Ali said: “We will be visiting a different place each day with the Community Medical Unit. It is a great opportunity for the Trust to thank our volunteers, raise public awareness of our services, recruit new Members and promote our free First Aid Awareness Courses.” During her time at YAS, Ali has been very busy organising and attending events to recruit Members, including hospital open days, college fresher fairs, local fetes and galas. Ali continues to work very closely with colleagues from our Patient Transport Service, Community Resilience and Commercial and Education Training Teams to promote our FT Membership. We currently have almost 6,000 Public Members but we are always looking for more. We also have over 4,000 Staff Members. Please encourage your family and friends to sign up as Members too, either at the events highlighted or by visiting our website www.yas.nhs.uk Free First Aid Awareness Training for Members Yorkshire Ambulance Service NHS Trust is providing first aid training for YAS Members across the region.
