Privilege to be able to volunteer for the Cardiff & Vale NHS trust @CV_UHB

The first three days have been busy and am witnessing first hand another level of work ethic,attitude and resilience by people in extraordinary circumstances. The machine that is the NHS is remarkable

There’s a lot of fear in the community and understandably so. People are dying and families are grieving.

I really do believe in helping alleviate that fear through education; helping to inform the wider public about the good that is being done across many facets of the NHS

I’m going to be writing a daily blog and also sharing, through my channels, what different departments here in the C&V trust are doing to play their part in this incredible collective effort, as well as stories of goodwill from the local business community

First up! DRIVE-THROUGH COVID TESTING TEAM!

Will is usually an orthodontist, Jo a dementia researcher, Lucy at the community resource team, Julie and Jane for the acute response team & Rhys in Haem clinical trials. New team, new goals. All playing their part. How good
