Peterborough and Stamford Hospitals NHS Foundation Trust became one of the first ten NHS Foundation Trusts in England in 2004. It runs Peterborough City Hospital and Stamford & Rutland Hospital.

The new hospital in Peterborough was financed through the Private Finance Initiative and has led the Trust into acute financial difficulties. It has an underlying deficit of £37 million a year on a turnover of £222 million.[1] It is unclear how its financial problems can be resolved.

A redevelopment programme for Stamford Hospital was approved in October 2013.[2]

In January 2014 it was reported that Circle Health could table a rescue bid for the Trust involving partnering it with nearby Hinchingbrooke Hospital.[3]
