George Dipe

Airedale NHS Foundation Trust

We're an award-winning NHS hospital and community services trust, caring for over 200,000 people living in Yorkshire and Lancashire. Working together to support our patients and our staff is at the heart of everything we do. We have the best of both worlds here – we're rural, and we're urban. Our services are provided from our main hospital site, Airedale Hospital, and at other locations across the community – such as the recently refurbished Castleberg Hospital near Settle, Coronation Hospital in Ilkley and Skipton Hospital. We care for patients living in an area of over 700 square miles within Yorkshire and Lancashire. This includes the rolling hills of the Yorkshire Dales and the city of Bradford which has a great history and culture. Our 2500 staff and 350 committed volunteers all work to our values and behaviours. Our values are about; compassion, improving lives, a commitment to quality of care and working together for patients. We want to make these part of our DNA. We understand that it's down to the hard work, effort and dedication of our staff that makes a difference for our patients. Our people really do make our Airedale experience – we take pride in fostering a friendly, effective and caring work environment.
