👑 From Bradford to Buckingham Palace 💙

Two outstanding nurses from Bradford Teaching Hospitals NHS Foundation Trust were invited to Buckingham Palace Garden Parties this month - a once-in-a-lifetime honour recognising their dedication, compassion and service. 🇬🇧👏

Chanel Robinson, Senior Sister on the Acute Stroke Unit at BRI, attended the first royal garden party hosted by Their Majesties King Charles III and Queen Camilla alongside Anne, Princess Royal and Prince Edward, Duke of Edinburgh.

Chanel described the atmosphere as “incredible” and spoke proudly of sharing the unforgettable experience with her mum.

Frankie Hill, Matron for Specialist Medicine, also attended a royal garden party hosted by William, Prince of Wales and Catherine, Princess of Wales after being recognised through the inspirational “Bantams of the Opera” choir. 🎶

Frankie attended with her close friend Sam Turner in an emotional and deeply meaningful moment connected to the resilience and spirit of the Bradford community.

From caring for patients on the front line… to walking the gardens of Buckingham Palace.

This is more than recognition.
This is Bradford excellence.
This is NHS pride.
This is what dedication, compassion and community look like.

Please join us in congratulating Chanel and Frankie on this extraordinary achievement! 👏👏👏

This Mental Health Awareness Week, we want to highlight the sensory room at Bradford Teaching Hospitals.

Thanks to the generous support of Sparkle for Axl and Bradford Hospitals Charity, children and families now have access to a calm and welcoming space during their hospital stay.

It’s a place where kids can relax, play, and feel at ease, and parents can find a moment of peace.

💯 Bradford businesses.
1️⃣ Powerful promise.
1️⃣ United community.

Over 100 local businesses and faith organisations across Bradford have united in support of Bradford Hospitals Charity, standing together for families with babies in the Neonatal Intensive Care Unit at BRI.

The aim is to help create a new ‘Home from Home’ - free accommodation just steps from the unit, so families with babies born as early as 22 weeks can stay close during critical moments.

No long journeys. No added pressure. Just families staying near their baby when it matters most.

The campaign has been led by charity ambassador and one of the owners of MyLahore and Wunder Crumble , Ishfaq Farooq, who has brought businesses together across the district to fundraise, donate and raise awareness.

He said: “Bradford looks after its own… families shouldn’t have to worry about basic needs while their baby is in hospital.”

Laura from the charity said the response has been “overwhelming” and shows the strength of local community spirit.

When Bradford comes together, incredible things happen.

to support Bradford’s community spirit.

8,400 young voices just delivered a message we can’t ignore!

A new study from Born in Bradford has spoken to over 8,400 secondary school pupils across Bradford and the message is clear: young people are worried about the environment, but they are also hopeful and ready for change.

While 32% feel negative about the future, almost half remain undecided, with many still holding on to optimism.

Air quality data in the study shows pollution in Bradford is above World Health Organization (WHO) safe limits, something young people are already noticing in their daily lives.

But they’re not only concerned, they’re proposing solutions. Schools came out as a key space where climate action, education, and practical change can help turn awareness into impact.

As one young person put it: “There’s still hope… small things can make a big difference.”

The research, part of the Born in Bradford Age of Wonder project and published on Wellcome Open Research, highlights a clear call: listen to young people and act.

Knowing how to give CPR could help save a life in an emergency!

Do you know how to perform chest compressions on someone who has gone into cardiac arrest?

Put your two hands together and interlock your fingers - like the photo!
Place your hands on the centre of the chest and push hard and fast
You should push twice a second, and not stop until an ambulance arrives or the person regains consciousness.
