About us
The Ulster Community & Hospital Trust was established on the 1st April 1998, the result of a proposal to dissolve and merge the North Down and Ards Community HSS Trust and the Ulster North Down and Ards Hospital HSS. The UCHT incorporates services across three main sites: Ulster Hospital, Ards Community Hospital & Bangor Hospital.
