I have been asked the following: We've been asked by a couple of people what wording to put on Trust documentation where we want to maintain our copyright. Is the '(c) Royal United Hospitals Bath NHS Foundation Trust' at the bottom of our templates sufficient to confer copyright protection? Any help / suggestions / comments would be much appreciated.
