Welcome to our Trust 

We are the secondary care provider of acute hospital services in north Cumbria and our services are based at the Cumberland Infirmary in Carlisle and the West Cumberland Hospital in Whitehaven. We also have a birthing centre at Penrith Community Hospital. The Care Quality Commission rated the Trust as 'requires improvement' overall following its latest inspection.  Read more here. 

Delivering safe and high quality patient care is at the heart of our organisation and is our over-riding strategic priority.

The next Trust Board meeting held in public will be on Thursday 26 July at 1pm in the Boardroom, West Cumberland Hospital, Whitehaven. Please note that Trust Board meetings are held in public but are not public meetings.
