We’re deeply honoured to announce, that VM Elevators have been entrusted with the lift maintenance across all Barts Health NHS Trust hospitals. This encompasses, The Royal London Hospital, St Bartholomew’s Hospital, Whipps Cross University Hospital, Newham University Hospital and the children’s services at The Royal London, home to one of the UK’s largest children’s hospitals.
Our director commented: “As an East London-based company, maintaining the lifts across our local borough holds special significance for our entire team. Each of these hospitals has played, and continues to play, a real role in our personal lives. Many of our engineers and staff have welcomed their children into the world at one of these very hospitals.
When you put that into perspective, it creates a profound personal connection: these aren’t just buildings we maintain, they’re places close to our hearts, where life begins, where loved ones are cared for, and where our community comes together in times of need.”
In a hospital environment, every minute truly matters, whether it’s transporting a patient to surgery, enabling staff to reach an emergency, or delivering critical equipment exactly where it’s needed. Being part of this ecosystem is both humbling and a profound responsibility. Through VM Elevators’ rapid-response repairs, proactive maintenance programmes, and expert modernisation services, we’re fully committed to keeping these essential lifelines safe, reliable, and ready, especially when they’re needed most, ensuring hospital staff, patients, and visitors move without unnecessary delays.
Supporting Barts Health NHS Trust reinforces why we do what we do: helping the people who care for others and playing a small but crucial role in keeping the heart of our hospitals, and our community, beating strong.
We are proud to serve the hospitals that have been there for so many of our own families. Here’s to continuing this meaningful partnership across East London and beyond.
