Happy New Year from everyone at Bristol NHS Group! 💖

However you're celebrating tonight, we wish you a safe and wonderful evening - and we'd also like to say a huge thank you to all our colleagues working at our hospitals across the New Year.

2025 was an incredible year of success for our organisation, topped off by the opening of the wonderful Princess Royal Bristol Surgical Centre. Here's to more of the same in 2026 🙌

We’re thrilled to share that former NBT Consultant Anaesthetist, Dr Fiona Donald, is to be made an OBE!

Dr Donald has been recognised in the 2026 New Year’s Honours List for services to anaesthesia, intensive care and pain management throughout a career spanning more than four decades. She worked at NBT for 27 years before retiring, and is also a former president of the Royal College of Anaesthetists.

We can’t think of a more fitting way to mark an exemplary career. Congratulations to Dr Donald – everyone at NBT is so proud of you 👏

From 20 November to 20 December, we joined the national campaign celebrating the contributions of disabled and neurodivergent people and raising awareness of the barriers they face. This year’s theme, “Disability, Life and Death”, shone a light on historical attitudes toward disabled people and reinforces the principle that every life matters.

Across Bristol NHS Group, we hosted a range of events and activities:

✅Listening sessions with disabled and neurodivergent colleagues to share ideas for improving inclusion and a Lunch & Learn on the Social Model of Disability, reinforcing our commitment to removing barriers and creating accessible workplaces.
🎨Creative Arts Special Craft and Cuppa and presentations from Ignite Bristol and Wandering Whatmore, bringing people together to celebrate inclusion in creative ways, hosted by Able+.
📢Messages and updates on internal systems celebrating changes made through the year to better support colleagues with hidden and seen disabilities.
🎹A special Fresh Arts piano performance by Rachel Starritt, celebrating talent and inclusion through music.

Thank you to everyone who took part and continues to champion equality across our organisation.❤️

Congratulations research midwives and maternity teams at Southmead Hospital, North Bristol NHS Trust and St Michael’s Hospital, University Hospitals Bristol and Weston NHS Foundation Trust who have each reached the milestone of supporting 1,000 babies and their families to take part in the Generation Study.

That’s a remarkable total of 2,000 babies across Bristol NHS Group taking part in research to identify treatable rare conditions in babies earlier. Collaborating across the two locations has brought a number of benefits to the study’s research teams.

💙 Supporting young people with hydrocephalus. 💙

Teenagers living with the chronic neurological condition recently took part in a pilot Bristol NHS Group event to help support their transition from children’s to adult healthcare services.

The session, led by neurosurgical teams from UHBW and North Bristol NHS Trust
brought together clinicians from The Bristol Royal Hospital for Children, Southmead Hospital NHS and University Hospitals Plymouth NHS Trust. Around 30 families attended at Aerospace Bristol, with funding from Harry's Hydrocephalus Awareness Trust.

Feedback from families includes: “An incredible day organised by incredible people. Thank you so much for organising it!”
