A commemorative church service will be held in Grantham next week to mark a year since the first COVID patients were admitted to United Lincolnshire Hospitals NHS Trust.

In partnership with St Wulfram's Church, Grantham, the United Lincolnshire Hospitals Trust will be streaming a commemorative church service on its website and social media.

The event will take place on Tuesday March 23 from 6pm to 6.45pm.

Father Stuart Cradduck, Rector and Rural Dean of Grantham, St Wulfram's said: "We are pleased to be working with ULHT on this lovely service. It is a great chance to consider just how much has happened this past year and start our emotional healing."

The 45-minute service will include ULHT colleague reflections, paramedic reflections, readings from faith leaders, reflective music and a slide show of Lincolnshire key workers.

Chief Executive, Andrew Morgan, said: "This is a wonderful opportunity to reflect upon this past year and come together to commemorate those we have lost. The pandemic has impacted so many people at ULHT and this service allows us the time to honour this."
