Black History Month has got off to a fantastic start at our Trust, with a series of thought-provoking and educational webinars for our staff.

Our Children’s Emergency Department (ED) at Queen’s Hospital has been very busy recently, so we want to remind you that our upgraded Children’s ED at King George Hospital is also open 24-hours-a-day, seven days a week.

Baby Loss Awareness Week begins on Sunday 9 October. For mum-of-three Gemma Perry, who lost baby Ronnie at 38 weeks in August 2021, it’s an opportunity to encourage more people to talk about it, and not bottle up their feelings.

We have partnered with Sapien Health to give our patients access to the world's first digital surgery clinic.

For National Inclusion Week, the Equality, Diversity and Inclusion (ED) team have spoken to colleagues in the Cancer and Clinical Support division and on Tulip Ward to find out what inclusion meant to them.
