Yesterday we said a fond farewell to Dr Catriona McShane who begins her maternity leave next week. We wish her all the best during this beautiful next chapter! ๐Ÿ‘ถ๐Ÿป๐Ÿผ๐Ÿ’š

It is with a heavy heart that we share our dear friend and colleague, Pauline, passed away peacefully on Saturday 15th March following a brief cancer battle.

We know this may come as a shock to some of you but we preferred to respect Paulineโ€™s privacy at such a difficult time.

It is almost impossible to put into words the grief we feel at her loss.

She fought fiercely, drawing strength from the loved ones around her, and continued to enjoy time with her closest friends and family.

Whilst her legacy lives on through her work with The Cheyne Gang, we will forever cherish the memories made as part of our team and how she inspired us every day with her radiant optimism and tenacity.

To us, she was much more than a nurse.

She was a beloved friend, a confidant, a leader. She touched the lives of so many both in her professional career and personal time.

We will miss the warmth of her smile, her vivacious nature and her incorrigible habit of championing colleagues and patients alike. She lived her life fearlessly - and with gusto! - and possessed an exceptionally kind soul that always thought of others. We know this profound loss will be felt deeply by those lucky enough to know her.

If you would like to pay your respects in any way, please consider donating to the charity she founded, The Cheyne Gang, via their fundraising page - https://localgiving.org/charity/the-cheyne-gang. They are dedicated to helping people suffering from chronic respiratory conditions such as COPD and asthma improve their airways through singing ๐ŸŽถ We know how much she would appreciate your support to keep their incredible work going โค๏ธ

We firmly believe that those we love never truly leave us. Theyโ€™re just waiting on the other side, having nabbed the best seat with a view ๐Ÿ’š

โœจ May she rest easy amongst the stars โœจ

NHS Pharmacy First allows community pharmacies to give you expert help for treating conditions like sore throats, earache and cold sores. This is along with other common clinical conditions.

Pharmacy teams offer advice, treatment or referral to other healthcare teams if needed.

They can help you get the right care in the right place, without having to go to your GP or local A&E for non-urgent treatment.
