Story

So Elsie has seen my letter from the NHS asking me to get on board with the £72 for 72 years campaign, and she said she wanted to ride 72 miles in one night which for a 5 year old is pretty impossible. So I’ve set us of target of a maximum of 10 days to complete 72 miles but hoping for less.

This year weve come together like never before to celebrate our wonderful NHS. Whether you have clapped for our carers, raised money or coloured in rainbows for your windows, thank you for showing just how much our NHS means to you. It has been truly moving to see and I know it has meant a lot to our staff here at Manchester University NHS Foundation Trust.72 years ago this month, the NHS was born right
