"A privilege to work alongside such excellent people at Oxleas"
April marked the month that we said a fond farewell to our Chair, Andy Trotter.
After eight and a half years as the Chair of Oxleas, Andy has reached the end of this term with us.
Colleagues gathered together with our Chief Executive, Dr Ify Okocha, at Queen Mary's Hospital, and were joined by our former Chief Executives, Ben Travis and Matthew Trainer, to thank Andy for his years of service, the guidance he provided as well as unwavering support and leadership.
Ify said: "We're really, really grateful to Andy for everything he's done for Oxleas."
Andy said: "The last eight and a half years at Oxleas has been a real privilege for me personally. We have top class people working at Oxleas and well as an excellent choice in the incoming Chair, Andrew George."
Andy will continue in his role as Chair of the London Ambulance Service but is also looking forward to spending more time at home with his family and friends.
