A special garden for palliative care patients to spend time with family and friends was opened on Thursday 28th April, at St Peter’s Hospital, in Chertsey.

A ground breaking ceremony was held in one of the courtyard gardens at St Peter’s Hospital in Chertsey today [Friday 25th February 2022], to mark the start of the work that will transform this garden into a healing space, filled with seasonal flowers, leafy plants and pleached trees, as well as the calming sound of water.

I wanted to update you following a recent CQC (Care Quality Commission) visit to Ashford and St Peter’s Hospitals. I am pleased to announce that overall the Trust continues to be rated as good following this inspection.
The Healing Arts Committee has been working with a local Ashford historian; Nick Pollard who has very kindly recorded a fascinating talk on the history of Ashford hospital.
It is a very interesting insight into the story behind the bricks and mortar of Ashford hospital. To watch the video click on the You Tube link above.

The Neonatal Intensive Care Unit (NICU) at St Peter’s were delighted to recently be joined by professional singer and ukulele player, Emma Stevens, for Lullaby Hour. Lullaby Hour is an award winning project created by the Music in Hospitals & Care charity that brings calming music into hospital wards to help aid sleep and recovery for babies. Emma sang to some of the parents and babies in NICU, and played some gentle and soothing music on her Ukulele which created a relaxing and calm environment for parents as they held their babies.
