Royal Surrey NHS Trust has been awarded an outstanding rating for its leadership by the Care Quality Commission (CQC) in its latest report.

"This is a proud moment of recognition for the entire Royal Surrey family and for leaders at every level," said Louise Stead, Group Chief Executive of Royal Surrey and Ashford and St Peter's Hospitals NHS Foundation Trusts.

"From those guiding wards, istrative teams, and services, to those providing strategic direction at Board," she added.

The Royal Surrey was praised for its processes in place for staff to raise concerns and noted 'staff feel ed to speak up without fear of detriment'.

Joss Bigmore, chair of the trust, said: "I am honoured to work among these dedicated colleagues and proud of our achievement" adding that it is a "good place to work".

The award also recognises outstanding leadership at community hospitals in Milford, Haslemere, and Cranleigh, along with other community and satellite services which make up the trust.

The CQC undertook a thorough inspection from 11 June until 20 June last year.
