Fit for the Future

Our staff are working in some amazing new buildings and departments that provide modern facilities and services that we are proud of, such as the RNHRD and Brownsword Therapies Centre, a new Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery department. We're now on the next phase which is building the Dyson Cancer Centre which is scheduled to open for patients in spring 2024.
