Clean Air Plan

King’s College Hospital and Guy’s and St Thomas’ NHS Foundation Trusts have jointly published their first Clean Air Plan.

The three-year plan outlines how the Trusts will address air pollution, raise awareness of the issue and ultimately improve the health of patients, staff and local communities.

The two south London Trusts, which cover 5 boroughs and include 37,000 staff with 4 million patient contacts, have outlined five areas of focus:

• monitoring
• transport
• procurement
• their buildings and sites
• awareness raising, engagement and communications
