Sometimes the phone rings and the answer has to be "yes." 📞 We were asked at short notice to provide medical cover for the Eid Festival in Victoria Park, Leicester. A community event bringing together thousands of people to celebrate, pray, and spend time with family and friends. The festival has run for many years and has become an important part of the city's community calendar. Our team stepped up to support the organisers deliver a safe and successful event. A big thank you to our team for being flexible and ready to step up! We hope everyone attending had a fantastic celebration, and we're grateful to have played a small part in supporting it. 🤲 #EidFestival #Leicester
Uniform refresh 👀✨️ Bea and Thea are trialling our new polos on shift this week. We’re prioritising visibility and comfort in our low-light venues.

We’ve moved from uppercase to lowercase lettering to improve readability at distance. Thank you @logo_studio_northampton for working with us to get it turned around 🙏🏿 What do you think of the refresh? 👇
