Doncaster and South Humber Healthcare NHS Trust

The Doncaster and South Humber Healthcare NHS Trust, DaSH, is a Mental Healthcare Trust serving over 850 000 inhabitants of Doncaster, Rotherham and parts of South Humber. Its headquarters are situated at St Catherine's Hospital in Doncaster. It provides mental healthcare as well as contracted work for Primary Care Trusts in South Yorkshire such as training and IT.

DaSH was created in October 1999 following the merger of Doncaster Healthcare NHS Trust and Scunthorpe Community Health Care NHS Trust. In April 2002 the Trust took on responsibility for the delivery of mental health services in Rotherham after Rotherham Priority Health Services NHS Trust was dissolved. The Trust underwent restructuring in June 2005 following the transfer of adult and older people’s mental health services in North and North East Lincolnshire to Primary Care Trust guardianship.

Dash's mainbase is St Catherine's Hospital, Tickhill Road Hospital as well as the now defunct Loversall Hospital. The Trust's annual budget is £83 million and employs around 2590 members of staff. It also operates at Doncaster Royal Infirmary, Rotherham General Hospital and Doncaster Gate Hospital.
