Stockport NHS Foundation Trust provides acute hospital and community healthcare for children and adults in Stockport, with some specialist hospital services also serving East Cheshire and the High Peak in Derbyshire. Stepping Hill Hospital is its main acute site, supported by health centres, clinics and teams caring for people in their own homes.
The trust employs around 6,300 staff and has approximately 742 hospital beds, serving about 350,000 residents in and around Stockport. Its work includes emergency, maternity, medical, surgical, diagnostic and rehabilitation care, alongside community nursing and therapies. Shared executive leadership with Tameside and Glossop Integrated Care NHS Foundation Trust supports closer collaboration between the two organisations while each remains separately accountable.
