Planned Fire Training Exercise at GRH – Tuesday 18 November
Gloucestershire Fire and Rescue Service will be carrying out a training exercise at Gloucestershire Royal Hospital on Tuesday 18 November 2025, between 6pm and 9pm.
You may notice:
- Emergency vehicles and firefighters (some in breathing apparatus) on site
- Restricted access to the tarmacked area outside the tower
- Temporary closure of the stairwell from floors 4–7
This is a planned exercise to ensure hospital emergency procedures are effective. No water will be released inside the hospital, and clinical areas will remain safe. Hospital services will continue as normal.
Please follow any instructions from staff or fire personnel.
