Thanks to staff lottery funding, the ENT and Audiology Outpatients Department at CRH recently brightened up their walls with several murals to create a more welcoming atmosphere for children visiting. You can see the before and after images below.

Rotational OPD Sister, Starla Aragon, said: "I just wanted to say thank you for the staff lottery funding we received. The murals have brightened our department so much and made it such a lovely place for children to be seen in."

Proceeds from the staff lottery are used to benefit the health and wellbeing of colleagues and patients at CHFT. Bids for lottery funding can be made at any time and will be considered at the Staff Lottery Committee meetings held every other month.
