Angela McGarry, Matron at Airedale NHS Foundation Trust said: “I was on shift as matron for the hospital and was told my dad, who was on a ventilator on ICU in my hospital would not recover from Covid. In the next half an hour I had to prepare myself for the ventilator to be turned off. At this point I would have loved nothing more than to have sat in our beautiful wellbeing garden to reflect and gather my thoughts and feelings for something that would impact on the rest of my life.” “The funding we’ve received from the generous donations of our communities and NHS Charities Together has meant we have now been able to improve our garden and provide other areas around the hospital for people to stop and take a moment. On behalf of the staff at Airedale we are extremely grateful.” Angela McGarry, Matron
