Spreading the colour

Rainbow image for Manchester Nightingale Hospital

Whether you are joining the weekly doorstep applause or your child is busy creating rainbows, it is truly heartwarming to see the collective appreciation being shown for Key Workers across the country.

Bridgewater Prep pupils have been busy helping spread cheer and positivity through their bright and beautiful artworks, many of which have been sent to the new NHS Nightingale Hospital to help decorate the walls of the hospital’s well-being area, giving thanks and support to all the hardworking doctors and nurses when they are taking a well-earned break.

But of course it is not just our fabulous NHS staff who need support. The spread of COVID-19 has also impacted heavily on care homes, with vulnerable elderly residents further isolated due to the visitation restrictions now in place.

We are therefore asking pupils to continue to spread the colour and create pictures and messages of support for us to send to local residents to let them know that they are not alone. Please email photographs of your child’s creations to saundersc@bwslive.co.uk and we will print and laminate in wipe-clean coverings, to ensure they are safe for distribution.

Thank you. Community is everything.
