Thousands Enjoy Chelsea and Westminster Open Day


As hospital marks 20 years since official opening

Nearly 2,100 local people enjoyed Chelsea and Westminster's Open Day 2013 on May 18, which marked 20 years since the hospital building was officially opened by HM The Queen.

Film, theatre and television actress Maureen Lipman CBE officially opened the event and took part in an interview on Hospital Radio for those patients that couldn't be involved in the festivities on the day.
