Our Community Wound Healing Team have been celebrating in style 🧦

From their stripy socks to their expert advice, the team have been out and about raising awareness of lower limb care, supporting both patients and colleagues across our services.

Throughout the week, they visited District Nursing bases to share knowledge, answer questions and highlight the importance of early diagnosis and effective treatment.

Nicola Mayes, Clinical Nurse Specialist for Wound Healing, said:
“Too many people are still living with avoidable pain due to inconsistent lower limb care. This week is about raising awareness, promoting prevention and ensuring patients receive the high-quality care we know is possible.

It’s also a great reminder for all of us to look after our own leg health, especially when we spend so much time on our feet.” 💙
