Pragati - 14th Jul 2014
I've always loved my job but it was only after I brought my mum in to show her what I did that the significance hit home. I’d spent time in hospital as a baby, and the realisation on mum’s face when I gave her the tour made me realise that this was so much more than just a place to stay. We help to provide things that families shouldn't have to think about when their child is ill, and that’s amazing.
I'm incredibly proud of what I'm a part of, proud of us all.
