Storm Eowyn – Disruption to Services

23rd January 2025

The South Eastern Trust is planning for significant disruption to our services on Friday 24 January 2025 due to the Met Office’s red weather warning in relation to Storm Éowyn.

Our focus will be on maintaining safe services for acutely unwell patients within our hospitals and protecting urgent and emergency care services.

Our message to patients and service users is that you should assume any scheduled appointments on Friday 24 January are cancelled, unless you are contacted by the Trust to advise otherwise.

If your appointment is affected, our team will be in touch to reschedule as soon as possible.

Urgent and Emergency Care services will remain open as normal. In an emergency always phone 999.

Before calling switchboard, please consider if your call is urgent.

Updates will be available here and on our social media.
