New Clinical Research Unit

Leighton Hospital now has its first dedicated space for clinical research.  Funded by the Clinical Research Network North West Coast, the old GP hot-hub portacabin outside ward 7 has being refurbished to provide a clinic room for research participants.

The unit was opened by the Chief Medical Officer, Clare Hammell, on 8th October 2024.

We have already used the unit to see research participants for trials in CCICP, Women's Health and Cancer research.
