I hope everyone had a really lovely time celebrating the opening of 2020.
What a great year to start: 2020 is the Year of the Nurse and Midwife. For those who's not aware, Nurses and Midwives make up the largest numbers of the NHS workforce and 2020 is Florence Nightingale's bicentennial year. What better way to celebrate than having the first ever global Year of the Nurse and Midwife, designed and promoted by World Health Organisation.
