Well done to Christine Cook, senior nurse practitioner, and Linda Langshaw, nurse practitioner on their achievement of 40 years NHS service.
Tracey Harrison, Clinical Team Manager expressed her gratitude and admiration for the achievement:
"I would like to celebrate an extraordinary milestone — 40 years of dedicated service to the NHS. It’s a rare and remarkable achievement that speaks volumes about commitment, passion, and resilience.
To Christine and Linda, congratulations on four decades of unwavering dedication to the health and wellbeing of others. Over these 40 years, you have witnessed the NHS evolve through countless changes and challenges — from advances in medical technology to shifts in patient care and policy — and through it all, your steadfast commitment has never wavered.
Your hard work has made a real difference in the lives of patients and colleagues alike. The compassion you’ve shown, the professionalism you’ve upheld, and the knowledge you’ve shared have left a lasting impact on everyone fortunate enough to work alongside you.
It’s not just the years that we honour today, but the countless moments of kindness, the extra miles walked, the late shifts, and the calm reassurance you have given to those in need. Your dedication embodies the very spirit of the NHS — caring for people, no matter what.
On behalf of all your colleagues, thank you for your loyalty, your passion, and your tireless service. You are an inspiration to us all, and we are grateful for your incredible contribution to healthcare and to the community.
Here’s to celebrating your remarkable journey and to wishing you continued success and happiness in all your future endeavours.
Thank you."
Congratulations, and thank you, Christine and Linda.
