Share your memories of Macclesfield, Congleton & Knutsford Hospitals

On Wednesday 5th July, the NHS is turning 75!

Providers and partners nationally will be celebrating by showcasing the best of the NHS and encouraging as many people as possible to join in with NHS@75 activities.

Here's how we're celebrating this milestone at East Cheshire NHS Trust: we want to hear from our patients, their families and our communities:

• Say thank you – if you want to say thank you to an individual or team in the NHS now is the time, simply send your message to ecntstaff.comms@nhs.net  and we’ll share these with our colleagues and externally throughout July.
• Share your memories of the NHS – do you have stories/memories of the East Cheshire NHS Trust that you would like to share? Please send to ecntstaff.comms@nhs.net  any accompanying photos welcome.
• Send us a Birthday card! –  Get creative and get the kids involved in! We will be creating a display for all the birthday cards we receive in our hospital throughout July. Please post your cards to The Communications Team, 2^nd Floor, New Alderley House, Macclesfield Hospital, Victoria Road Macclesfield Cheshire SK10 3BL
• Join in the NHS Big Tea! – We will be hosting our own Big Tea event from 12.30 – 14.30 at the main entrance of Macclesfield Hospital where we will be selling Birthday cakes at £2 per slice. Proceeds will go our Trust charity.
