    Our emergency department is extremely busy. Please help us to keep our emergency services free for those who need them most. If you need urgent medical help but you're not sure where to go, use NHS111 to get assessed and directed to the right place for you.

    Max and Keira's Law comes into effect today which means consent will be presumed with people having to opt out if they wish not to be a donor. It was named after Keira Ball, who died aged 9 & Max Johnson, now 12, who was saved by her heart & under the care of the Freeman Hospital

    It's with very mixed emotions we say goodbye to this little one today. After more than two years with us, Grace Westwood is leaving the Freeman Hospital after having a heart transplant but we know she's in good hands with her big brother Josh 😊♥️♥️ bit.ly/3S4vW5J
