UCLH is opening a new clinical facility at 7 Bedford Passage, off Cleveland Street, on the site of the old Middlesex Hospital - a short walk from University College Hospital.

University College Hospital at Bedford Passage will include a bespoke new environment for breast outpatients in a Breast Care Centre, and a new MRI unit with three MRI scanners.

In addition to the NHS facilities, the development will also include residential and commercial units. The pedestrian walkway between Cleveland Street and Charlotte Street, known as Bedford Passage, will be reopened and there will be a new public square, which will be fully accessible to the patients and the public.

UCLH Charity has pledged to fundraise so that we can commission a selection of artworks from a diverse range of artists. The proposed artwork aims to create a calm and welcoming environment for patients and staff, focusing on themes around nature and light.

Information alert

There will be no changes to patient appointments until the building opens. Any future changes will be communicated to you by your treatment team.

The UCLH Breast Care Centre, which sees patients to help diagnose or rule out cancer, as well as the ongoing management of breast cancer surgical patients will be located within Bedford Passage. The new breast clinic will include outpatient rooms, a treatment room, mammography and ultrasound facilities. 

Some breast services, including imaging and surgery patients, will be relocating from the University College Hospital Macmillan Cancer Centre to 7 Bedford Passage in 2025. Chemotherapy and oncology services for breast cancer patients will remain at the Macmillan Cancer Centre. 

Please note that any changes to patient appointments and the location will be communicated to you by your treatment team.

Three new Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) machines will be provided in 7 Bedford Passage to help with the diagnosis of patients with a range of medical issues and conditions.

The additional MRI machines will also support medical research, in partnership with colleagues at the UCL Centre for Medical Imaging.

What is a the parking dispensation scheme?

It is Camden Council’s parking scheme for patients with Blue Badges attending University College London Hospitals NHS Foundation Trust (UCLH). Areas in Camden, south of Euston Road, are not covered by the national Blue Badge disabled parking scheme. If you want to park near, or in, UCLH disabled parking bays, you will need to apply for a parking dispensation to use with your Blue Badge. A parking dispensation is required for parking in and around:

University College Hospital at 235 Euston Road

Elizabeth Garrett Anderson Wing at 25 Grafton Way

University College Hospital Macmillan Cancer Centre at Huntley Street

Hospital for Tropical Diseases at Mortimer Market

Institute of Sport, Exercise and Health at 170 Tottenham Court Road

Royal National ENT and Eastman Dental Hospitals at Huntley Street

University College Hospital Grafton Way Building (opening soon).

Parking dispensations are not required for the National Hospital for Neurology and Neurosurgery, the Royal London Hospital for Integrated Medicine, or our Westmoreland Street hospital.

How to apply for a parking dispensation

When you arrive for your appointment at University College Hospital (UCH), the UCH Macmillan Cancer Centre, the Royal National ENT and Eastman Dental Hospital, or UCH Grafton Way Building, park your car and ask for a parking dispensation at the ground floor reception desk. You will need to bring the following:

  • Your Blue Badge
  • Your vehicle registration number
  • Proof of hospital attendance showing appointment time and date, e.g. clinic appointment letter.

If you are given a follow-up appointment while at the hospital you can return to the ground floor reception desk before you leave to obtain a parking dispensation to take away with you for your next appointment.

Please note: Parking dispensations are only issued to UCLH patients with Blue Badges who are attending hospital outpatient appointments, day cases and the Emergency Department. They are not issued to carers, relatives, visitors or friends who are Blue Badge holders bringing a non-Blue Badge holder patient to an appointment. Parking dispensations are not issued to inpatients; overnight parking is not permitted.

If you have a question about disabled parking, or would like to apply for a parking dispensation in advance please email your query to uclh.disabledparking@nhs.net or telephone 020 3447 9922. Please note that at least one week's advance notice is required.

To book transport please contact The patient transport service

If you need assistance to plan or make a journey the National Rail Enquiries website provides information on the support available.

The page provides a summary of the services available including a list of train companies and their access information.

It is recommended that you book help 24 hours before you travel. This enables staff to give you as much information as possible before your travel; make alternative arrangements for you if the station is not step free or not staffed at the time you wish to travel; and ensure that there are enough staff for all the assistance requests at a station.

Help with transport fares

If you are in receipt of benefits you may be entitled to reclaim transport fares when visiting the hospital for an inpatient or outpatient appointment. Please ask the clinic staff for an attendance form and take this to the appropriate hospital's Cashiers Office. Reimbursement can be made at the time of your visit if you can produce evidence that you are a claimant.
