She wears a navy quilted jacket and stands beside the iconic "Big Fish" mosaic. The Albert Memorial Clock and a modern glass building are visible in the background, with the setting sun casting a warm glow.

Marie Curie Hospice Liverpool journal club can bring together staff from across the hospice, and other local hospices, to highlight the importance of 'hidden care' provided in our settings. So grateful to have non clinical staff join us and share their experiences 💛

Excellent talk from two of our research nurse team, Hilary & Georgina.
Having a research nurse embedded in a hospice setting can benefit patients, caregivers, bereaved people and staff.

'Sign me up to anything... if it makes a difference to someone else's life, I'm in!'
