Queen Charlotte’s & Chelsea Hospital: a history

  • Queen Charlotte’s & Chelsea was originally a voluntary hospital. Its name was inspired by its patron, Charlotte of Mecklenburg-Strelitz, the wife of King George III and grandmother of Queen Victoria.
  • Dating back to 1752, Queen Charlotte’s & Chelsea is one of the oldest maternity hospitals in the country and has been based in various locations over the centuries, including Bayswater, Marylebone Road and Ravenscourt Park.
  • After Queen Charlotte’s & Chelsea was relocated to its current site in Acton, next to Hammersmith Hospital, the new facility was formally opened by HRH Princess Anne in 2001.
  • In 2019 national inspectors from the Care Quality Commission rated the hospital ‘outstanding’, including the first ‘outstanding’ rating for a maternity unit based in London.
