Congratulations Mary on your very well earned retirement. ❤️

This is anything but a typical year and we all want to protect ourselves and those close to us. Flu can be deadly and is easily spread. Ask your GP or pharmacist if you’re eligible. More information here: nhs.uk/fluvaccine

If you have an appointment, or are concerned about the health of you or your baby, it's important that we see you. Just speak to your midwife or maternity team. The NHS is here to see you, safely. #HelpUsHelpYou nhs.uk/pregnancy-and-…
