The latest figures in Berkshire

Frimley Health NHS Foundation Trust – 353 (no new deaths reported)
Royal Berkshire NHS Foundation Trust – 179 (two new deaths reported)
Berkshire Healthcare NHS Foundation Trust - 19 (no new deaths reported)
It is important to note that Frimley Health runs sites outside of Berkshire, for example Frimley Hospital in Surrey, so it is hard to get an accurate figure for the exact amount of deaths in Berkshire alone.
