Our head of chaplaincy Linda Peall retires today after five years at ESNEFT and a 20-year NHS career, to spend more time with her family, take in theatre trips to London, and photograph local wildlife and nature, as part of her pastime as an amateur naturalist. Good luck Linda!

I was fortunate to be at the opening of Aldeburgh Hospital‘s brand-new, state-of-the-art x-ray machine. The facility negates local residents needing an X-ray from having to travel all the way to Ipswich Hospital. I filmed a short video, below youtu.be/N8VyUN14e5Q?si=QWo8…

Enjoyed making this video about the new, improved new x-ray machine at Aldeburgh Hospital. It’s arrival has been made possible thanks, in no small part, to a donation from the League of Friends of Aldeburgh Hospital. youtube.com/watch?v=FLkgIGY-…

Was great to visit Aldeburgh Community Hospital today and find out what’s going on there. It really is a hive of activity amongst the patients and staff and there’s some great stories to be had. Takes me back to my days as a reporter.
