Role:  Staff nurse on the stoke ward

Fave Christmas song/carol? - ‘Driving home for Christmas’ by Chris Rea 1986 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DDt3u2Ev1cI (although my work commute is only10 minutes haha). 

Christmas dinner disaster? Overcooked the chestnuts in the microwave. Me and Thomas (the cat) thought the kitchen was exploding!

Best bit about Christmas?-1. Special time with family and friends! 2. Reflection. How lucky I am and that my personal tutor (Graham Ormrod) from the University of Huddersfield has been a power of support, during my nurse training! Thank you Graham Ormrod!! 

Fave present ever and why? 17 pairs of socks! Yes socks.  As picture shows I have already made a visit to the Elves and on my list is… socks. I love socks! Hope I have been a ‘good boy’ for Santa!  

Send us a wish for Christmas - I wish all patients are at home and well for Christmas
