One of the largest NHS trusts in the country, we have come together to establish the UK’s first academic health science centre (AHSC). The Trust has an annual turnover of over £950 million, approximately 10,000 staff, and it sees over 500,000 patients a year.

The creation of the AHSC, a partnership between the NHS and Imperial College London, is a major advance for patient care, clinical teaching and scientific invention and innovation. The fusion of the different strands of our work and the achievements that can now be realised will lead to significant benefits for patients and greater advances in healthcare than could be delivered apart.
