Croydon borough is the largest (by population) in London. The population is diverse, with a mixed population and younger than average population. Most local population statistics present a similarly mixed picture with pockets of affluence as well as pockets of poverty.

It makes Croydon University Hospital an attractive place to work for a Paediatrician looking to practice the fullest range of Paediatric skills. Croydon Health Services NHS Trust has a commitment to support the care of children and young people from the local population and support the service development of the Paediatric department as one of the key services provided by the trust.
