Travelling to the BRI
The BRI is located in a very
busy part of the city, with severely restricted roadside

map, together with the location of disabled parking bays.
A free shuttle bus service is provided for patients, visitors
and staff which stops outside the main BRI building. There are

Audio guides to the Bristol Royal Infirmary emergency
department
In partnership with the Bristol Sight Loss Council, we have
developed a series of audio guides to help improve accessibility
for blind or visually impaired people visiting the emergency
department.
The guides describe what you will find during a visit and
provide step-by-step instructions on how to make your way around
the department and its facilities. Listen to the
guides.
Research at UHBW
As well as providing clinical care, our Trust has an important
role in research. This allows us to discover new and improved ways
of treating patients. While under our care, you or your child may
be invited to take part in research. To find out more and for
contact details of the Research and Innovation department, please
