We are a team of 50 people working across Hull Royal Infirmary and Castle Hill Hospital in Cottingham. In June 2017, we will be lacing up our running shoes and taking part in the Hull 10K. We will be joined by partners, family and friends in raising money for WISHH, the local charity which has been set up to help us deliver great care and cutting edge treatments for our patients.

Our team includes experienced runners, right through to those taking part in their first ever event of this kind. We work across many different hospital departments; from theatres and radiography to ophthalmics, blood sciences and beyond, but all of us have the same goal: to enable our remarkable people to deliver outstanding care to local people, 365 days per year.

Our team comprises: Jane Allen; Jennifer Beech; Kerry Blount; Lee Bond; Andrew Botham; Tracy Braithwaite; Cerys Brennan; Jessica Brown; Laura Buckby; Matthew Burnett; Paul Catlow; Emily Dorrington; George Franck€; Sally Gilbert; Damian Haire; Joshua Hall; Shane Hammond; Dan Harman; Lisa Hartley; Rachel Hunter; Martin Jarvis; Jo Johnson; Paul Johnson; Matthew Kay; Lydia Makey; Alexander Oboh; Kevin Phillips; Lydia Phillips; Piers Phillips; Mike Potter; Carla Ramsay; Suzy Rawling; Maxine Read; Laura Roberts; Sue Salis; Gabriella Shanks; Lewis Shires; Amy Sison; Tom Szczerbicki; Rebecca Thompson; Richard Thomson; Colin Vize; Leanne Warters; Hayley Watson;  Michelle Wattam; Katy Waudby; Frank White; Eric Whitehurst; Kerry Williamson; Lucy Yearham.

Historically hospitals have always relied on public support, even after the founding of the NHS; Hull and East Yorkshire Hospitals NHS Trust is no different. The WISHH charity aims to raise money to help both Hull Royal Infirmary and Castle Hill Hospital do more to ensure every patient receives the best and most modern care possible. 

Your support will help provide additional specialist equipment and support services, as well as aid the transformation of spaces and facilities within the hospitals for patient and visitor comfort alike. 

We are all very grateful for your support and your donations really will make a difference. Thank you!
