In the NHS Friends and Family Test for August 2026, 66% of 751 patients who responded across the trust reported a positive experience. The trust's general and acute wards averaged 90.8% overnight bed occupancy in the quarter to March 2026 - full wards are the main reason admitted patients queue in A&E.
