Welcome to County Durham & Darlington NHS Foundation Trust


We are an acute Trust providing healthcare across County Durham and Darlington and surrounding areas from two main acute hospitals, at Durham and Darlington, alongside other community hospitals. The Trust became an NHS Foundation Trust on 1st February 2007.

In October 2009, we made some changes to our emergency services and children's services. Click here for more information.
