AIREDALE Hospital has again produced its annual report in newspaper form.

The fifth edition of the Annual Record includes details of new services, work carried out at the Steeton site and employee awards during the past year.

It also contains staff and governor profiles, health advice, features on telemedicine and dementia and an outline of fundraising and charity activities, plus there is a page dedicated to young people.

Copies are available from the hospital's outpatients department and two entrances and are being distributed to some GP surgeries.

It is also accessible online at airedale-trust.nhs.uk.

Shazad Sarwar, non-executive director of Airedale NHS Foundation Trust, said: "Our aim is to keep patients and local people informed about what is going on in the trust, including new services and developments.

"Hopefully this publication will help to spread the word that we welcome local people becoming more involved with our work and shaping our services."
