Cardiff and Vale University Health Board is the focus of BBC’s six-part documentary series Saving Lives in Cardiff — and the first episode will air on Tuesday, 20 August.
Produced by Label1 for BBC One Wales and BBC Two, Saving Lives in Cardiff was filmed over several months in 2023 across the University Hospital of Wales, Noah’s Ark Children’s Hospital for Wales and University Hospital Llandough.
The programme was granted exclusive access to all three hospitals and follows incredible world-leading surgeons and their teams as they seek to transform the lives of their patients against the backdrop of the longest waiting times in history.
Over six one-hour episodes, Saving Lives in Cardiff will show the public the difficult decisions clinicians make every day as they choose who to treat next and explore patients’ emotional journeys as they undergo life-changing operations.
Watch Saving Lives in Cardiff on Tuesdays at 9pm on BBC One Wales and BBC Two.
