Spider-Man approved 🌟
A huge thank you to Cyclists Fighting Cancer for donating a trike to children and young people on E39.

Last week, CEO Mike Grisenthwaite visited the ward to present the trike, which will help patients stay active, support their rehabilitation and enjoy a sense of fun and normality during their hospital stay.

Mike said: "It's really important to introduce exercise and rehabilitation to help improve outcomes for young patients. Bringing cycling into a hospital environment gives children the opportunity to experience the benefits of being active and, we hope, inspires them to continue cycling long after they leave hospital."

Sarah Anderson and Nadine Graba, Occupational Therapists at NUH, said: "This donation is absolutely incredible. It gives children the opportunity to exercise while in hospital and do something fun and normal during an incredibly difficult time. We're extremely grateful to Cyclists Fighting Cancer for their continued support of our patients."

🩵 Nottingham Children’s Hospital is celebrating 30 years of its complementary therapy service, which made NUH the first NHS trust in the country to offer this type of support to children and young people.

Supported by Nottingham Hospitals Charity since 2006, the service helps patients like 11-year-old Grace, who is living with end-stage kidney disease. Grace says sessions with therapist Ginny McGivern help her feel "relaxed and happy" even on the hardest hospital days.

Grace and her Mum, Karen, have been sharing their story with ITV Central who came to QMC to film Ginny giving Grace a relaxing foot massage after a busy morning of renal appointments. You can watch it on the link in the comments.

A behind the scenes view of BBC East Midlands Today visit to Queen's Medical Centre (QMC) to film with 23-year-old patient Meena, who is living with endometriosis, and the specialist team at QMC working to improve diagnosis for women across the East Midlands.

The feature showcases the work of Dr James Phillips, Consultant Gynaecologist, and Alexandra Butt, Sonographer, who performs a specialist 40-minute ultrasound scan designed to identify deep endometriosis in areas where the condition can develop.

Alex is currently the only sonographer at NUH trained to carry out this type of scan, with four more sonographers due to complete the specialist training.

By using advanced ultrasound scanning to detect deep endometriosis, which has traditionally often only been identified during surgery or through MRI, the team hopes to support earlier diagnosis and help patients access the treatment they need sooner.
