I had to go to the Nuffield Hospital for a check-up on Wednesday, January 6.

I was impressed by all the staff and volunteers who were out with spades, clearing snow from the parking spaces and pathways to the hospital and making it much safer and easier for all those needing to go there.

Each one had a smile and was having fun doing it.

Well done!

I personally would give them well-earned medals. Thank you to all of them.
