About Us
In October 2024, the boards of Ashford and St Peter's Hospitals NHS Foundation Trust and Royal Surrey NHS Foundation Trust agreed to form a group model - bringing together two high-performing organisations with shared geography, overlapping populations, and complementary expertise.
While both organisations remain independent - with their own executive teams, boards, and councils of governors - this model allows us to work more closely to deliver better care, create new opportunities for our people, and respond to the challenges facing the NHS with greater scale and pace.
This isn't a merger or acquisition. There are no plans to close services or hospitals. Our group model is about clinically-led collaboration that improves consistency, accelerates improvement, and supports innovation across both trusts - while maintaining strong local leadership and accountability. In January 2025, Louise Stead was appointed as Group Chief Executive to oversee this new phase of partnership.
A Joint Transformation Committee has also been established to shape the group's strategic direction and drive shared priorities. We're already seeing the benefits of coming together. From the new Surrey Surgical Centre at Ashford Hospital to the recently refurbished Cancer Centre at Royal Surrey, we're delivering ambitious, patient-focused projects as a collective. Clinical and corporate teams across both trusts are working together.
