Sally Noon’s four year old daughter, Laila, is currently receiving care at the hospital.

Sally said: “It was lovely to have a visit from Chico, Gemma, Santa and everyone from the fire service.

“It’s lovely that Christmas has been brought to the children and onto the ward.

“Throughout her stay the staff at the hospital have provided fantastic care and really helped to lift her spirits but this visit has really helped to brighten up her day.”
