West London Children’s Healthcare was formed on 1st April 2022 bringing paediatric services at Imperial College Healthcare NHS Trust (ICHT) and Chelsea and Westminster Hospital NHS Foundation Trust (CWFT) under a single leadership structure accountable to both Trust Boards for all elements of operational, quality, safety and financial performance. WLCH runs services from Chelsea & Westminster Hospital; Hammersmith Hospital; St Mary’s Hospital and West Middlesex Hospital. In addition, two child development services operate from the Cheyne Centre and Woodfield Road.

It is recognised that significant variations in outcomes exist for children and young people in North West London. These variations are driven both by the social economic factors that impact the daily lives of CYP but also as a consequence of variation in systems, processes and access to healthcare.

WLCH has been established to drive the changes needed to reduce these variations and to improve quality, experience and outcomes across all aspects of child health. We value every member of our team and we are absolutely committed to recruiting and retaining a thriving, diverse and inclusive workforce.
