Sheffield Children's NHS Foundation Trust— A&E

Includes Sheffield Childrens Hospital. Official monthly statistics through September 2026. NHS source.

In an emergency call 999. Unsure where to go? Call 111 or use 111.nhs.uk — for minor injuries, an urgent treatment centre is often faster than A&E. The figures on this page are monthly published NHS statistics, not live queue times — they indicate pressure, never your personal wait. Everything below describes September 2026— it is not tonight's wait.

We did not find a live waiting-time page published by this trust when we checked on 21 October 2026, so the figures below are NHS England's monthly statistics. See which hospitals publish one →
