Manchester University NHS Foundation Trust

MFT was formed on 1st October 2017 and since then has been responsible for running a family of nine hospitals across six separate sites, providing a wide range of services from comprehensive local general hospital care through to highly specialised regional and national services.

From 1st April 2020 a tenth hospital – North Manchester General Hospital – joined the wider family of MFT hospitals creating a Single Hospital Service for Manchester.

We are the main provider of hospital care to approximately 750,000 people in Manchester and Trafford and the single biggest provider of specialised services in the North West of England. We are also the lead provider for a significant number of specialised services including Breast Care, Vascular, Cardiac, Respiratory, Urology Cancer, Paediatrics, Women’s Services, Ophthalmology and Genomic Medicine.

The Trust is committed to working together to improve the health and quality of life of our diverse communities. To achieve this goal, and to overcome the challenges we face, the Trust developed a new organisational strategy for 2024 to 2029: Where Excellence Meets Compassion.
