Royal Berkshire Hospital Survey

What would be the impact to you if Royal Berkshire Hospital moved?

The Royal Berkshire NHS Foundation Trust is looking at options for a new Royal Berkshire Hospital as part of the government’s New Hospital Programme. The Trust have so far identified two sites which could be suitable and want to understand the impact for staff, patients and the wider community including residents and local businesses if the hospital moves.

The two potential sites they are seeking your views on are;

Thames Valley Park at the end of A329M – 2.2 miles north east of the current site between East Reading and Woodley

Thames Valley Science Park – 3.7 miles south east of the current site off the M4 near Shinfield

Please fill in the survey to have your say or email bbt@royalberkshire.nhs.uk with your feedback
