The Trust is inviting patients, staff and the local community to share their views on the latest plans in a third round of public consultation, working towards submitting a planning application for the whole site in spring 2027.

St Mary’s Hospital has a proud history of care and discovery dating back nearly two hundred years. The redevelopment will build on this legacy with a new, purpose-built, 800-bed teaching hospital and major trauma centre at the heart of a vibrant life sciences campus. This would regenerate the existing 10-acre site, bringing healthcare, research and innovation closer together and creating more jobs, investment and green spaces for the community.

Dogs and Cats Home Veterinary Hospital in Battersea
This new-build veterinary hospital, conference and administration building for Battersea Dogs & Cats Home (BDCH) forms a key part of a major re-development of the site, replacing an outdated four storey facility adjacent to Battersea Power Station. The 8-storey, 4,000m2 development is now the largest building on the constrained site, tightly boarded between mainline railways.

RIBA Competition : New Cancer Treatment Centre for Guy’s & St Thomas’ Hospital

Guy’s Hospital Architecture Competition
RSHP to design Guy’s & St Thomas’ Cancer Treatment Centre

Rogers Stirk Harbour + Partners (RSHP) is part of the winning team to design a new Cancer Treatment centre for St Guy’s & St Thomas’ NHS Foundation Trust in London. The competition – launched in February – sought designs for a world-class facility that would provide an outstanding working environment and patient experience. The new building will be the first in a phased development for the hospital that will ultimately produce an Integrated Cancer Centre, combining clinical care with research. The winning design breaks the building down into five three-storey ‘villages’, each responding to a different type of patient journey.

Richard Rogers commented: “We are delighted to be part of a team to design a new cancer treatment centre for one of the UK’s leading hospitals. Our approach to the CTC for Guy’s and St Thomas’ goes beyond conventional thinking on hospital design and makes the experience of dealing with cancer as relaxed as possible for both patients and staff.”
