St Helens and Knowsley NHS Trust - new name change

Published: 29th June 2023

St Helens and Knowsley Teaching Hospitals NHS Trust and Southport and Ormskirk Hospital NHS Trust will be coming together to create a new organisation on Saturday 1st July 2023.

Our new Trust will be called Mersey and West Lancashire Teaching Hospitals NHS Trust (MWL) and will officially launch on 1st July 2023.

The change of name will have no significant impact on key stakeholders including our colleagues-in-training currently employed by StHK Lead Employer. The StHK Lead Employer team will continue to support you and there will be no change to our day to day structure or processes.   

On day one we will continue, as we do today, delivering the Lead Employer service, and there will be very little change.  The main change you will notice will be the inclusion of a new Trust logo on documentation and our website bearing our new Trust name, in addition to our service being referred to MWL Lead Employer instead of StHK Lead Employer.

Please continue to contact our team at the same email addresses. We will keep you informed of any changes as and when they occur.

As Lead Employer we look forward to continuing to work with our stakeholders and supporting all our colleagues-in-training throughout their employment.

If you have any questions further to the above, please do not hesitate to contact either Debbie Livesey, Head of HR and Stakeholder Engagement at Debbie.livesey@sthk.nhs.uk or Catherine Lothian, Assistant Director of HR, Lead Employer at Catherine.lothian@sthk.nhs.uk

Thank you for your ongoing support.
