A&E performance
Monthly published performance for every English NHS trust with a major A&E — from NHS England's official statistics (latest: September 2026).
Shows the closest major departments and their published September 2026 figures — ordered by distance, never by wait.
Patients waiting 12+ hours from decision-to-admit to a bed. Published for accountability — clinical urgency, not averages, decides any individual's wait. Larger trusts see more patients, so the per-1,000-attendances rate is shown alongside the count.
