I appreciate that some may prefer not to say, but, for any who are okay about it, whereabouts are you and where’s your hospital? I live in the New Forest area of Hampshire and my hospital is University Hospital Southampton, which is a 45-60 mins drive away.
Hi Mad. For data protection etc. members might not post as reply as we're aware address details must be remain confidential.
I can say I live in Lincolnshire(a huge county) and I attend both Lincoln County Hospital (1.25 hrs away) and Boston Pilgrim for Chemo and scans (40 minutes away). I had my hysterectomy in Nottingham.

Hi Barb, I did say people may prefer not to - however I’ve seen a number of people mentioning in their posts where their hospitals are, so thought it was worth a try! Plus as we use usernames not our real names, there’s really no risk at all.
Just had to wave my Champs flag!! LOL
