Today is ‘A Day for Thorpey’ at the Kia Oval, on what would have been his 56th birthday ❤️
His family are raising money for mental health charity @MindCharity.
Headbands designed by the family will be sold online and at the ground to raise funds!

📸 A portrait of dedication — 1948 to 2025✨
From starched whites to calming blue, the NHS has been powered by compassion, resilience, and the people who show up every single day to care for others.
Happy birthday to our National Health Service 🎂🎉

June's Special Recognition award goes to Tony Richards from our Estates Team. While travelling for work, Tony stopped to help a man who had collapsed and suffered a head injury. Tony helped to deliver life-saving CPR until paramedics arrived.
A true hero. Thank you, Tony 🌟

Well done to our amazing acute LD liaison nurses. Making such a difference to people’s lives. Thank you ❤️#LDweek2025 @WyeValleyNHS
Heartfelt feedback from a family member of a patient with Learning Disability:
“Sam and Jayne’s commitment to inclusive, person-centred care made all the difference. Their efforts were central to the success of the operation and the overwhelmingly positive experience" 💙
