Visiting St Thomas' Hospital on Saturday 16 May

Large protests and events are expected in central London on Saturday 16 May. 

To keep everyone safe, only patients with an appointment and people visiting patients will be able to access the hospital.  

If you or your child need urgent care, you can still come to our emergency department (A&E) as usual.

The main entrance on Westminster Bridge Road will be closed on the day. Please use the entrance on Lambeth Palace Road. Signs will be in place to help you find your way.

Public transport and walking routes are likely to be busier than usual. If you have an appointment on Saturday, please plan your journey in advance and allow extra time. Check the Transport for London (TfL) website for travel updates.

If your child has an appointment at Evelina London Children’s Hospital, please visit the Evelina London website
