Mid and South Essex NHS Foundation Trust’s Post

Essex Cricket Club hit a six for kindness by visiting Broomfield Hospital to spread festive cheer to patients, staff and families! 🎄🏏 Players from the men’s and women’s teams took a break from training to bring smiles, gifts and joy to the children’s ward. Essex stars Jamie Porter, Tom Westley, Shane Snater, Kelly Castle, Jo Gardner and Cordelia Griffith chatted with patients of all ages to brighten their day. Men’s Captain Tom Westley said: “It was really eye-opening to visit Broomfield Hospital today and see first-hand what a wonderful job the staff here do, especially at this time of year. “Sport has enormous power to uplift spirits, and if my teammates and I can provide even a little bit of joy at Christmas to children and families who have so much going on, that means the world.”
