The Lancashire and South Cumbria NHS Foundation Trust expense claim form is available at the link below. You should complete a form at the end of each month and submit the form to George Silverwood, Programme Assistant. Travel expenses are accepted electronically. Trainees should email the claim form and photos/scans of any receipts.
The form will be checked and approved and then sent to Payroll at the Trust; in order for the form to be processed in time for your salary the following month, Payroll need to receive it by the 5th of each month (so please submit to the office in time to ensure this, otherwise, the travel claim will be held over for another month). You are only eligible to claim for travel within the past three months, so it is advisable to submit on a monthly basis.
Trainees must register their vehicle before submitting any claims to the Trust. This can be done by completing the car insurance form below and submitting it to the programme office together with a current insurance document which states that there is cover in place for business use.

The NHS says the following about its constitution: –
The NHS Constitution has been created to protect the NHS and make sure it will always do the things it was set up to do in 1948 – to provide high-quality healthcare that’s free and for everyone.
No government can change the Constitution without the full involvement of staff, patients and the public. The Constitution is a promise that the NHS will always be there for you.
What is the NHS Constitution?
For the first time in the history of the NHS, the constitution brings together in one place details of what staff, patients and the public can expect from the National Health Service. It also explains what you can do to help support the NHS, help it work effectively, and help ensure that its resources are used responsibly.
The Constitution sets out your rights as an NHS patient. These rights cover how patients access health services, the quality of care you’ll receive, the treatments and programmes available to you, confidentiality, information and your right to complain if things go wrong.
Rights and pledges
One of the primary aims of the Constitution is to set out clearly what patients, the public and staff can expect from the NHS and what the NHS expects from them in return.

The relationship between the University and the NHS
All staff are employed to work on the clinical psychology programme based at Lancaster University. However, some are employed directly by the university, and some are employed by the NHS (Lancashire and South Cumbria NHS Foundation Trust (LSCFT)). Irrespective of employer, NHS or University, all programme staff have a base at Lancaster University.
Trainees are employed by the NHS (band 6) and are designated trainee clinical psychologists who have contracts with Lancashire and South Cumbria NHS Foundation Trust for a either a 36 month fixed term period, or a 52 month fixed term period. Trainees are line managed by the Clinical Director. However, at the same time, they are full time postgraduate doctoral students of Lancaster University. The money for the training, including staff and trainees’ salaries, comes from a purchaser of training, in this case NHS England. It is this NHS body that ensures the University has sufficient money to provide training. The formal training contract is currently held between the NHS England and the University.
