Unsung Heroes

Jane Brighty

Why:  For on a day when egg mayo was off the menu in the cafe, she took the initiative to try out a few new sandwich fillers including marmite, sea-food cocktail and turkey.  The figures are yet to be reviewed but the Marmite proved to be a winner, and was creatively combined with various fillers including cheese, lettuce and cucumber.  Thank you Jane for your inspired creativity and solution based approach. The patients loved the straw poll and you brightened up our day.

Why:  For managing, collecting, counting and reporting back on funds raised via our collection tins of which there are around 40 in and outside the hospital.  Raising around £12k each year, this is a massive task and we are hugely grateful to both for quietly and very efficiently going about the task of summing all that loose change up.  We are very grateful.  Thank you.
