Croydon Health Services
Croydon Health Services NHS Trust serves one of the largest and most diverse boroughs in the capital.
Our 4,500 dedicated staff and volunteers cover every corner of the borough, caring for people of all ages at home and in our community services close to where they live. This includes specialist home treatment for children with cancer and long-term conditions, and a 24/7 Rapid Response Service to assess older patients within two hours of being referred by their GP. We also provide dedicated health services to some of the most vulnerable in our community, including asylum seekers and people experiencing homelessness.
The Trust is a trailblazer in integration and partnership working, bringing together health and care services in Croydon to help people live and stay well. It is a founding partner of the innovative One Croydon Alliance, which brings the NHS, social care and voluntary sectors closer together to join-up the care and support available for over 385,000 residents.
Croydon has been a forerunner in COVID-19 recovery, with a virus-protected ‘hospital within a hospital’ introduced shortly after the first wave of the pandemic, which reduced waits for planned care as part of a coordinated response across the NHS in South West London.
Our main site, Croydon University Hospital provides more than 100 specialist services and is home to the intensive care unit, Emergency Department and 24/7 maternity services, including a labour ward and midwifery-led birth centre. Our sibling hospital, Purley War Memorial Hospital (PWMH) in the south of Croydon borough, offers outpatient care, including diagnostic services, physiotherapy and ophthalmology services run by Moorfields Eye Hospital, alongside an onsite GP surgery.
Epsom and St Helier University Hospitals
Nearly 900,000 people come to the Trust’s hospitals for care and treatment every year. We employ almost 5,000 staff, working around the clock to keep our busy hospitals running smoothly.
It provides an extensive range of services including cancer, pathology, surgery, and gynaecology to 490,000+ people in South West London and north east Surrey. We operate two busy general hospitals, Epsom Hospital and St Helier Hospital, and run services from other locations, including Sutton Hospital. We are also part of two innovative integrated care partnerships - Sutton Health and Care and Surrey Downs Health and Care.
St Helier Hospital is home to the South West Thames Renal and Transplantation Unit and Queen Mary's Hospital for Children, while Epsom Hospital is home to the South West London Elective Orthopaedic Centre (SWLEOC). Both Epsom and St Helier hospitals have Accident and Emergency departments (A&E) and Maternity services (Obstetrics).
Kingston and Richmond NHS Foundation Trust
Kingston Hospital NHS Foundation Trust cares for more than half a million patients each year, from across Kingston, Richmond, Elmbridge (Surrey), Merton, Wandsworth and Sutton, and is highly rated by staff and patients alike.
In 2018, it became the first acute hospital trust in London to be rated ‘Outstanding’ for overall quality and leadership by the Care Quality Commission (CQC). Kingston’s maternity service was also rated ‘best in London’ by women recently surveyed by the Care Quality Commission.
The Trust provides a full range of diagnostic and treatment services and has a national reputation for innovative developments in healthcare, particularly in ‘patient-focused’ care across services including emergency and day surgery.
Kingston Hospital is known as a centre of excellence for elective care and is recognised nationally for its ITU outcomes for patients, as well as its cancer services which are run in partnership with the Royal Marsden Hospital, a world-leading provider of cancer care.
The hospital employs 3,500 staff. It is located on a single site in Kingston upon Thames, but also runs a number of outpatient clinics in sites across the catchment area including Raynes Park Health Centre, Surbiton Centre for Health, Queen Mary’s Roehampton and Teddington Memorial Hospital.

St George's University Hospitals
