Overview

Today, the Royal Free London NHS Foundation Trust runs three London hospitals; Barnet Hospital in north London, Chase Farm Hospital in Enfield and the Royal Free Hospital in Hampstead. Barnet Hospital and Chase Farm Hospital became part of the Royal Free London NHS Foundation Trust on 1 July 2014. Last year our highly skilled healthcare teams provided treatment and care for over a million patients and achieved some of the best clinical outcomes in England. Our mortality rates have been the best among England’s hospital trusts for many years. Our goal is to continue excelling and to be in the top 10 per cent in the UK for clinical research, scientific medical research and teaching outcomes. We provide a wide range of routine and specialist health services and we aim to deliver world class healthcare to our patients. To do so, we combine world class expertise with leading healthcare that is local, patient-focused and friendly.

The Royal Free began as a pioneering organisation and we continue to play a leading role in the care of our patients. Our mission is to provide world class expertise and local care.
