East Cheshire NHS Trust's 'Health Matters event' is set to return later this month with a new series of talks lined up for the public to hear more about the work going on behind the scenes. Don't miss out on this fabulous chance to hear from the specialists working at your local Trust!

The event, which used to regularly take place before the COVID-19 pandemic, showcases the dedicated work of Trust consultants, clinicians and staff to provide local communities with fantastic healthcare.

Open to the public, the evening event will return on Thursday November 30 from 7pm until 8.30pm in the Lecture Theatre at Macclesfield Hospital.

The first event will see Nicola Biggar (pictured), Head of Midwifery, share the journey of her department throughout the COVID-19 pandemic and the return of maternity services to Macclesfield Hospital earlier this year.
