FOI Response

Thank you for your freedom of information request below. Unfortunately this does not relate to Gloucestershire Health & Care NHS Foundation Trust. We are a Community and Mental Health Trust and your questions seem best directed to our Acute Trust.
Can we therefore suggest that you contact Gloucestershire Hospital NHS Foundation Trust who should be able to provide this information.
