Our Cambridgeshire & Peterborough team members - Kaye Bostock, Franklyn Baxter, Gemma Orriss, Ahmad Jebeli, and Sarah Field, took on an epic challenge climbing Ben Nevis! Battling rain, snow, and tough terrain, “The New Adventurers” showed true grit, teamwork, and determination every step of the way. Huge shoutout to Sarah for reaching the summit in extreme conditions, an incredible achievement.

And it wasn’t just about the climb… they’ve also raised over £300 (and counting) for Little Miracles and the Peterborough Cathedral charities. Well done team, we look forward to seeing what challenge they take on next!

Thank you, Samiha, for your openness and for helping us foster a more empathetic healthcare community. Visit for information, resources and medical talks, as well as a free helpline.

During , we often look for grand gestures of wellness, but the true foundations of resilience are often built in the quiet, challenging moments of our everyday lives.
