Our Nursing Angels

They are fondly known to us as Nurse Lynne and Nurse Alyssa, patching us up when we hurt ourselves, offering a listening ear when we are worried, looking after us when we feel unwell. During the pandemic, they became community heroes, rising to the challenge of vaccinating our local community and we are so proud of them both!

It was with great pride that during the summer we were informed that Lynne and her husband, Philip, were honoured in the Queen’s Birthday List! They will receive the BEM for their volunteering and helping others during the pandemic. What great role models for us all, showing that empathy and initiative can do such good in the world.

“I have been very humbled by the gratefulness of the people receiving vaccines - they have brought me to tears. I feel very proud to be part of a profession helping to conquer this awful virus” > Nurse Alyssa “To be part of history in a battle against this dreadful disease has been very humbling. Although I cannot see a person’s smile, I know the patients are appreciative and so joyful by looking in their eyes. What counts is not the fact I have lived but the difference I have made in the lives of others.” > Nurse Lynne
