A huge well done to everyone who took part in last night’s Firewalk in support of East & North Hertfordshire Hospitals' Charity.

You lit up the night every bit as much as the flames!

A big thank you to all our supporters and volunteers who stepped up - quite literally - to help raise funds that make a real difference to patient care across our hospitals.

📸 Our Charity team have shared some fantastic photos capturing the energy and smiles from the event. Do take a look and join us in celebrating the brilliant people who took part.

Thank you to everyone involved for helping to make this such a memorable evening. ✨
