A touching tribute to some heroic people
Residents of Central Lancashire who have lost loved ones to Covid or whose relatives donated their organs after passing away from any cause are being invited to make use of special memorial gardens that have been created at the Royal Preston and Chorley and South Ribble hospitals.
A memorial tree forms the centrepiece of the Royal Preston garden, with its leaves bearing the names of organ donors – both to honour the individuals who have given the gift of life after their own death and also to encourage others to to consider doing the same. .
“You look back now and you almost can’t believe it happened – but when we were all in the midst of it, it was just such a transformation and it impacted everybody,” Dan added. Dan said that he was particularly pleased that staff would now have a place of sanctuary that they could visit during a break from – or after the end of – “a difficult shift”.
Ellie Orton OBE, chief executive of NHS Charities Together, said of the gardens that the organisation had funded: “In the wake of Covid-19, NHS staff are under more pressure than ever before – and having spaces where they can rest and reflect in between busy shifts can make a huge difference to their overall health and wellbeing.
