About Us


The South West London Perinatal Network Board consists of representatives from all the constituent organisations and has representation from the key clinical groups as well as management. This constitution gives a membership of a maximum of 25 people. This was agreed to ensure that all organisations and disciplines are adequately represented.

Chair
It was deemed appropriate that the Chair should be from a South West London Primary Care Trust; a Chief Executive or nominated deputy. Currently the Chair is Dominic Conlin, Chief Executive Officer, Croydon Primary Care Trust.

Clinical Lead
The Clinical Lead will provide clinical leadership across the network and lead on the development of a strategic clinical vision for the neonatal network and a plan to implement and deliver it. This will involve development and co-ordination of clinical and related services, establishing clear links within and outside the Network. The current Clinical Leadposition is jointly held by Dr.John Chang and Dr. Ruth Shephard , Consultant Neonatologists from Mayday Hospital and St.Helier Hospital.

 Network Management Team  
A central management team provides support for the network. Information and contact details can be found on the 'Contact Us' Page
