Publisher's Synopsis
This is an anthology of poetry about the NHS. It includes poems about receiving life-saving treatment, about the people who deliver that treatment with empathy and resilience, about friends and family and their intimate journeys and about the impact of both ill-health and the effect of the interventions aimed at curing it. It celebrates the fact that access to medical care doesn't depend on the lottery of good or bad fortune.
We hope it is a fitting way to mark 70 years of an extraordinary institution.
