How we work

Our work is divided across six operational directorates in four boroughs in south London. We provide more than 240 services to local people, as well as more than 50 specialist services for children and adults across the UK and beyond.

Each of our operational directorates is led by a service director who leads their team to deliver the high-quality care we are known for, both in hospital and in the community.
