If you've visited our hospital before, you may notice some recent changes to our entrance
Due to construction work, we have recently made changes to our entrances to ensure patients and staff are kept safe. These changes have happened because we're constructing a new building next to our existing hospital.
What’s changed?
We have opened a different entrance to Evelina London from within St Thomas’ Hospital. See a map highlighting the internal route (PDF 309Kb).
The current Evelina London entrance on Lambeth Palace Road remains open but for pedestrians only.
- The doors from St Thomas’ Hospital opposite Evelina London are closed.
- Internal access between Evelina London and St Thomas’ Hospital is outlined on this map (PDF 309Kb).
- The road to the Evelina London main entrance is closed to traffic. All drop offs and parking are via the St Thomas’ Hospital car park.
If you have any questions about these changes, please speak to a member of staff caring for your child.
