PEOPLE interested in mental health issues across East Lancashire will get their chance to quiz NHS bosses next month.

Public question and answer time is a central feature of the annual general meeting for Lancashire Care NHS Trust, which provides mental health services across the county.

The regular board meeting will take place at 11am, at the Globe Centre, off Scaitcliffe Street, Accrington. Following this there will be lunch at 12.30pm, where members of the public have an opportunity to meet the board, which is headed by chief executive Finlay Robertson and chairman Jo Darbyshire.

The AGM will then take place at 1.30pm. People wanting to pose questions at the meetng are being asked to contact Lynn Fairfield, at the trust, on 01772 695300.

The year ahead for the trust should be busy as the locations for three new major mental health hospitals, including one for East Lancashire, are due to be announced shortly.
