Where this data comes from
Wait times shown here are sourced from publicly available information published by the relevant NHS trust. These figures reach us through a partner NHS data feed rather than a page we check directly, and are refreshed every 15 minutes. Data was last checked at 11:57am on 26 Oct 2026. A full list of every source we use, and when each was last checked, is on our data sources page.

This site is independent and has no affiliation with, or endorsement by, any NHS trust or hospital. Department labels shown (e.g. A&E, MIU, UTC) are our interpretation of the source data and may not match the hospital’s own terminology. Wait times change frequently and may not reflect the current situation, so always contact the hospital directly for the most up-to-date information. If any information is incorrect, please let us know.
