Published: 9 Sep 2022

We are deeply saddened about the passing of Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II.

We were honoured to welcome the Queen in 1980 when she officially opened St George’s Hospital and St George’s, University of London in our current site in Tooting after relocating from our original Hyde Park Corner site.

We remember her decades of dedication and service and our deepest sympathies are with her family and the whole nation at this very sad time.
