Royal Edinburgh Hospital Patients Council

Charity registered in Scotland SC021800

Our roots go back to 1989 when the old Thomas Clouston Clinic was closed and patients were moved to the Royal Edinburgh Hospital. Patients decided they needed a stronger voice. They wanted to have their opinions heard. So they formed a Patients Council which eventually was properly constituted as the Royal Edinburgh Hospital Patients’ Council in 1993. We continue to strengthen the voice of patients and former patients through independent collective advocacy. We continue to build on the foundations established by patients over twenty years ago.
