Tonight, we celebrated our colleagues at the annual #WeAreLASAwards which celebrates the hard work and dedication from our people working across the service. Thanks to our VIP @clairesweeney

Merry Christmas from #TeamLAS 🎄 While it’s a joyful time for many, we know it can feel lonely or hard for others. If you’re struggling today, know that you’re not alone. For support call @samaritans on 116 123, NHS 111, or 999 in a life threatening emergency.

Death threats, racism, homophobia - the harsh reality for 999 & 111 staff. Lykeisha, a 111 health advisor, shares: "I was trying to help someone, and they became racially abusive. We are only doing our jobs, there should be no place for racism or abuse in today’s society."
