Royal Free London NHS Foundation Trust

About the Company

World-class expertise, local care

Since our foundation in 1828, the Royal Free London has had a pioneering history, leading the way in many areas of healthcare: advancing our understanding of illness; taking advantage of the latest technology; developing new and better therapies; and tackling health and social inequalities.

That pioneering spirit continues to be central to our approach today, and contributes to our record of delivering some of the best clinical outcomes for patients across our local and specialist services.

As a large NHS foundation trust, we employ more than 12,000 staff from 120 countries, serve a population of more than 1.6 million people across 70 sites in north London and Hertfordshire and are one of the biggest providers of cancer care in the UK.

We want to bring the best of the NHS to every patient, no matter which of our hospitals or services they visit.

We aim to achieve this through our three-fold mission of delivering world class treatment and local care, underpinned by groundbreaking research and the very best in class for learning and education.

From our three main hospitals and at various other satellite sites and hospital trusts, we offer local services for local people.
