Communications Department

Covering all internal, external, and media communications.

The Trust’s Communications Team is here to help the media access information and ask questions about Barnsley Hospital. The team manages all media inquiries and requests for filming and photography.

The team looks after media and stakeholder relations, digital communications, internal communications and patient information for the Trust, and should be the first point of contact for all media inquiries and requests.

If you have a media enquiry during office hours (Monday-Friday 9-5), please contact a member of the Communications team.

Out of hours

For urgent queries after 5pm or at weekends, please call the hospital switchboard and ask to be put through to the on-call Director.
