We’re delighted to share that work on our new Community Diagnostic Centre is now underway, made possible through an £8.4 million investment from NHS England! 🚧

Whilst we already deliver a wide range of diagnostic tests and scans (e.g. MRI, X‑ray, lung function tests), the new purpose‑built CDC will enable us to increase what we are able to offer and introduce more diagnostic pathways. Having multiple diagnostic tests available in a single visit is better for patients and will support them to access the appropriate treatment before problems escalate, as well as supporting the wider healthcare system.

Logan Construction has been appointed as contractor for the build, which is expected to open this summer. 👷

A quick update from us regarding the ongoing water issues in East Grinstead and the surrounding area.

South East Water has been able to restore mains water to many local residents, but as a precaution we’ll continue to be supplied by a tanker until the system stabilises, likely into early next week.

✅ Thanks to the water tanker supply, we can continue to provide safe, high‑quality patient care and all our services are running as normal. If you have an appointment or surgery, please attend as planned.

✅ Our Spitfire Restaurant and Hurricane Café have also reopened!

✅ Don’t forget our Minor Injuries Unit is open daily 8am–8pm if you need help with a minor injury or ailment. The list of what the team can support with is on our website
https://www.qvh.nhs.uk/our-services/minor-injuries-unit/

If you have any questions please speak to a member of our team. Thank you for your understanding and support.

A big thank you to our amazing staff who have made sure that our patient appointments and procedures took place today as planned.

Whilst some homes in East Grinstead are starting to see their water return, we’re still being supplied by tanker deliveries until the mains supply is fully restored. This means a few temporary changes remain in place to help us manage water safely and effectively:

✅ Appointments and surgery: Please attend as planned unless we contact you directly.

✅Minor Injuries Unit: If you need help for a minor injury or ailment the team are here 8am-8pm every day to help you. We know some of our neighbouring hospitals are busy so if we can help you please come here rather than going to an A&E. Please refer to the list on our website for more information https://www.qvh.nhs.uk/our-services/minor-injuries-unit/

✅ Food and drink: Tomorrow, The Spitfire and The Hurricane will be open if you need to buy food or drink. However if you want to bring a drink or snacks you are welcome to.

✅ Help us save water – every drop counts at the moment.

✅ Speak to a member of staff if you have any questions or concerns.

Thank you again for your patience. We’ll keep sharing updates here and on our website.

A huge thank you to our fantastic staff, volunteers, patients, and local community for your incredible support as we navigate the ongoing water supply challenges.

We’ve been able to keep our clinical services running again today, to continue to ensure patient care remains our absolute priority.

We’re not yet back on mains supply so water is still being provided by tanker. This means we still have some temporary changes in place to help us manage water usage safely and effectively.

✅ If you have an appointment or surgery please come to the hospital as planned unless you hear from us. Thank you to the small number of our patients with outpatient appointments who needed to be rescheduled.
✅ Our Minor Injuries Unit remains open 8am-8pm daily.

If you’re coming to an appointment or for a procedure:
✅ Please bring your own drinks and snacks if you can, as our catering facilities are temporarily closed.
✅ Help us by using water wisely while on site.
✅ Speak to a member of staff if you have any questions or concerns.

Please stay tuned for further updates. Thank you again for your patience and support – our incredible teams are working hard behind the scenes to keep things running smoothly.

We’ll keep you updated here and on our website. Thank you for working with us to keep our services running.

🎉 Happy 90th birthday to us! 🎉

Our current hospital site was officially opened on this day 90 years ago today!
The opening ceremony was performed on Wednesday 8 January 1936, by her Highness Princess Helena Victoria, with many a high-profile guest in attendance, including the Sackville Choir! Local people from East Grinstead gathered to watch the official opening and then tour the hospital, with patients being transferred from our old hospital site 6 days later. 🥳

The image below dates from our year of opening – showing what is now our instantly recognisable Jubilee Building, the home of our Sleep Disorder Centre, Minor Injuries Unit and Trust offices. We think we look pretty good for 90! 💙

With the start of 2026 now upon us, we wanted to take the opportunity to reflect what a year it has been here at QVH! 🎉

As we close the chapter on 2025 and look ahead to the new year, Queen Victoria Hospital would like to extend our deepest thanks to our staff, patients, partners, volunteers, and our wider community. This year has been one of remarkable progress, innovation, and collaboration, all made possible by your dedication and support.

Our patients remain at the heart of everything we do. In 2025, we were proud to receive outstanding patient feedback, achieve national recognition, make significant digital advancements, and feel the strength of our community’s support. From launching Archie, our new Electronic Patient Record (EPR) and securing a top position in the Care Quality Commission (CQC) Adult Inpatient Survey, to celebrating one another at our annual Star Awards and finally in December announcing our future strategic partnership plans, this year has been defined by challenge, growth, and unwavering commitment from across the organisation.

You can see a few snapshots of what we’ve been up to throughout the year below, and read more about our 2025 journey here on our website: https://www.qvh.nhs.uk/2026/01/a-look-back-at-our-journey-through-2025-at-queen-victoria-hospital/

Thank you to all of our colleagues, patients, supporters and friends for your exceptional work and support this year; here is to another year of continuing to rebuild lives and support healthier futures in 2026. 💙

A particular thank you to our colleagues who have seen in the New Year looking after our patients – you are brilliant!

Happy New Year to everyone! 🎆
