Today, three pro-bikers from Italy have travelled across Europe to bring bike therapy to children and long-term patients at our hospital. This is the first time they've visited a hospital in the UK and we absolutely loved seeing the smiles on our staff and patients faces!

Yesterday, we launched new 'wobble rooms' for staff who need a quiet space to share worries, verbalise emotion or just sit quietly. These rooms are part of our staff wellbeing package - which includes 24/7 mental health support and weekly care bundles for all teams.

On April 2, Safurat was admitted with COVID-19. 111 days later, she went home today. Safurat is the oldest patient who was ventilated that has recovered. Her daughter, Ola, said: A big thank you to you all. Our sincere gratitude goes to all the wonderful GWH teams."

Thank you to everyone for showing their support to us and our amazing staff - in these challenging times, it’s the small acts of kindness like #ClapForOurCarers that show how valued our health service is, and how grateful we all are to everyone who works in it. 👏 #ThankYouNHS

We've received a message of thanks from none other than Kerry and Kurtan Mucklowe - local stars of #ThisCountry! This message extends to our colleagues working not only in the acute hospital, but across the community and in primary care as well. youtube.com/watch?v=tRkn86…

Our physios held a surprise graduation at the hospital for the phyios who finished university early last year to join us during the pandemic, and who didn't get their own uni graduations. They were presented with a certificate, and were joined virtually by their families.

As we count down to the weekend, Swindon's emergency and urgent care team prepare for a busy 48 hours providing lifesaving care. Dr Stephen Haig asks local people to stay safe by following social distancing and being mindful of drinking too much.

Thank you to everyone who joined us today for the 11am silence in tribute to all workers who have passed away, and to thank all those who continue to do vital work to keep public services running. A huge thank you to all our staff, and our colleagues across the NHS. #COVID19

Speech and Language Therapists on ICU have developed ‘Conversation Stations’ that include resources to help support communication for every patient on the unit. The stations include writing tablets, picture charts, phrase charts, pain scales and orientation boards. Great work!
