The Communications and Engagement team at University Hospitals Plymouth NHS Trust is responsible for coordinating and facilitating the Trust’s media relations, including social media, and should be the first point of contact for all journalists. To ensure the safety of our colleagues and confidentiality of our patients, all media enquiries, including requests for Trust statements, filming requests for any of our sites, patient condition checks, and requests for patient and staff interviews, should come directly to the Communications and Engagement team.
Individuals representing the Trust should not be contacted by journalists and no filming or photography may take place on any Trust site without prior permission from the Communications and Engagement team.
