Teams across our hospitals reviewed the use of sliding sheets as part of a project to reduce pressure ulcers.
The sheets can be laundered and reused, a step towards the circular economy we're aiming for 👏

Congratulations to our team of volunteers who helped @CambsCops mark and register 154 cycles at the Biomedical Campus today! Marked cycles discourage thieves and those logged on @bikeregister are more likely to be returned if they are ever stolen.

Our #CUHCommunityGarden Project has been off to a wonderful start!🌻
So far staff and patients have visited Clay Farm Garden, Rock Road Library Gardens and @CUBotanicGarden. We've enjoyed learning what a Community Garden could bring to @CUH_NHS.🌿

Last week we rehomed over 350 plants, which ranged from small cuttings to fully grown plants, to approximately 300 members of CUH staff! 🪴
All the plants were either swaps by staff, or were donated from the CUH Gardening team, Darwin Nurseries (NHS) or from CUH staff❤️

@ThinkGreen_CUH many thanks for the amazing plants!
What a great way to improve staff mental health and wellbeing.
Keep up the good work!
I have some Athyrium (rare) ferns if anyone would like that has a suitable outdoor space.
