What a summer it's been. Non-stop sunshine, the World Cup off to a flyer and topped off with yesterday's  "GOOD" news from the CQC .

There were celebrations across the Trust and Comms cameras captured some of them -  and produced a special video featuring Owen and Lindsay.

We brought together our CEO and long-serving Deputy Director of Nursing to share their reactions on a special day for us all.

Owen said the improved rating on two years ago was due to a "fantastic  group of people" here at CHFT.  Lindsay said her overwhelming feeling was one of pride for all colleagues in hospitals and in community who are "going the extra mile"  for our patients every day and night of the year. Watch it here.
