UCLH was at the centre of London’s response to the Covid-19 pandemic from the beginning. Frontline clinicians, support staff and those working behind the scenes came together to meet the challenges presented by the most significant health emergency of our times.

3 We distributed over 4,000 treat bags for staff to promote well being and self care, and to boost morale
