🎗️September is Childhood Cancer Awareness Month🎗️
Five children are diagnosed with cancer every day in the UK, but teams like our Paediatric Oncology clinic work hard to care for and treat children who sadly receive this diagnosis.

Our special clinic at Worcestershire Royal Hospital treats our young patients with cancer, giving hundreds of doses of chemotherapy a year to children, as well as bringing them moments of joy and celebration.

These photos include some of the inspirational children going through treatment and our staff working to help them overcome this disease. 💛

Alexandra Hospital in Redditch has been recognised nationally for its high standards of clinical quality and safety for patients having planned surgery.

The hospital has been awarded 'accredited elective surgical hub' status by NHS England and the Royal College of Surgeons, with the team praised for being 'welcoming, friendly, and providing high quality care delivered in an efficient way'.

The accreditation is the third for our hospitals, following successful accreditations for both children’s and adult surgery at Kidderminster Hospital last year.

✨🌿 Garden glow-up 🌼✨
Two courtyard gardens at Alexandra Hospital have been completely transformed thanks to volunteers from the Redditch 41 Club.

Over three weekends, the team completed extensive gardening work and power washing, introduced new gravel and bark, and installed new benches and decorations resulting in a spectacular transformation 🤩

Thanks so much to the Redditch 41 Club for all your hard work 🙏👏

We're proud to help young adults with special educational needs through a supported internship programme in our hospitals.

The latest graduates from the programme celebrated their success at a special graduation ceremony recently.

The supported internship helps young people gain valuable work experience, empowering them to take their first positive steps into the world of work.

We're now looking forward to welcoming the next group of supported interns this autumn.

Doctor. 👩‍⚕️ Rower. 🚣‍♀️ Champion! 🏆

A doctor from Worcestershire Royal Hospital is celebrating a stellar season in her rowing boat, after picking up medals at the British Rowing Championships, the British Rowing Masters, and the Henley Women's Regatta.

Back on dry land, Dr Catherine Jackson is a Consultant in Geriatric Medicine at our hospitals. But Catherine leads a double life racing (and winning!) at top-level British rowing competitions after taking up the sport at university.

🏆 This season she collected the Fiona Dennis Trophy for winning the aspirational lightweight single sculls event at the Henley Women's Regatta, before winning the Masters B single scull and Masters C double sculls at the British Rowing Masters 🥇🥇

Earlier this month she rounded off her excellent season with a silver medal at the senior British Rowing Championships 🥈

Congratulations on your amazing season Dr Jackson! 👏

A beautiful wedding took place on our ward yesterday, as staff at Worcestershire Royal Hospital arranged a last minute wedding for Dean to finally marry his partner Melanie.

The wedding was arranged at short notice by staff on our Medical Short Stay Unit following Dean's wishes.

At 8am yesterday morning the ward sprung into action, and with the help of our chaplaincy team and the Worcestershire registrars, by 4pm the couple were married with Dean's bed decorated, their family as witnesses and even a wedding cake for good measure!

Congratulations to Dean and Melanie for tying the knot ❤🤵👰
