We loved seeing the fantastic #FestivalOfLights celebrations taking place across our hospitals over the past few days. The delicious Diwali-inspired menu at Royal Brompton featuring aloo mutter and carrot halwa cake proved to be particularly popular with all!

Why do you see staff wearing rainbow badges? These badges were first developed at @EvelinaLondon and are now part of an NHS initiative which signals that the wearer is open, non-judgmental and offers inclusive care for patients who identify as LGBT+. #TransDayOfVisibility
