We were delighted to welcome some of our littlest fundraisers today who came to make a special donation to WUTH Charity.

Emily, Albie and Kamila came with Preschool Teacher Krista Savage from Habla Bilingual Nursery to say 'Feliz Navidad' and hand over an amazing £743 which the nursery raised on their Elf Run.

Thank you to all the fundraisers at Habla, and to everyone who has donated to WUTH Charity throughout the year. Your contributions will be used for the benefit of patients and staff. Merry Christmas, and a happy and healthy new year to all.

Urgent treatment centres (UTCs) provide urgent medical help when it's not a life-threatening emergency. They can diagnose and deal with many common problems people go to A&E for.
If it's a life-threatening emergency you should go to A&E. If it's not life-threatening, choose one of our other services.

Make sure you get your flu jab if you're eligible.

Flu cases are higher than they have ever been at this time of year.

An average of 2,660 patients per day were in a hospital bed with flu last week. That’s enough flu patients each day to fill more than 3 whole hospital trusts.

If you haven’t already, and you’re eligible, get your flu vaccine.

The flu jab reduces your risk of becoming seriously ill this Christmas, and helps protect those around you.

Book via your GP, pharmacy or the NHS App.

Our refurbished Neonatal Unit at Arrowe Park Hospital has now opened, giving families a calmer and more supportive space during their baby’s early care.

Stage one of the refurbishment focused on improving our intensive care and high dependency areas. This work was made possible thanks to generous fundraising by IncuBabies, parents, staff and WUTH Charity.

Thank you to everyone involved for helping us improve care for babies and their families.
