In recognition of their hard work throughout the pandemic, staff at Royal Berkshire Hospital have received a sweet treat from local developer David Wilson Homes.
20 members of staff who were directly involved in the vaccination programme at Newbury Racecourse were gifted a box of Cadbury’s Heroes chocolates as a way to show the house builder’s appreciation for their hard work administering vaccinations to local residents
Martin Butler, Community Fundraising Manager at Royal Berks Charity, said: “We were delighted to be involved with David Wilson Homes to arrange the kind donation of chocolates to our amazing vaccination team.”
The vaccination centre administered 66,500 Coronavirus jabs between January and June and was a collaboration between nine surgeries to protect residents in West Berkshire against COVID-19.
Campbell Gregg, Managing Director at David Wilson Homes Southern, said: “Supporting local communities is absolutely key for us, and we wanted the staff at Royal Berkshire Hospital to know we are thankful for their hard work at Newbury Racecourse where we are building new homes.
“With the team administering hundreds of vaccines a day to the residents of Newbury, we can appreciate how tirelessly the fantastic staff have been working to keep the local community safe.
“This small gesture of appreciation is to let our local heroes know that our community is grateful for everything they do during difficult times.”
