The trust itself consists of Royal Preston Hospital on the northern outskirts of the city in the Fulwood area and Chorley and South Ribble District General Hospital, it is distinguished as being the only trust in the North West to offer some neurology services, and Royal Preston hospital is one of few hospitals in the United Kingdom to possess some advanced cancer scanning units, thanks to the Rosemere cancer foundation, a local charity.
