NHS Wales awarded George Cross on 73rd birthday in honour of pandemic efforts

THE NHS in Wales has been honoured with The George Cross in recognition of the incredible effort of all those working in the NHS during the pandemic. Rarely given to organisations, the award recognises extraordinary acts of bravery in trying to save the lives of other people. It comes as the NHS marks its 73rd birthday today (July 5) and represents the work of the NHS not just over the last few extremely challenging months, but every day since its creation in 1948. The George Cross Committee recently provided advice to the Prime Minister that the NHS should be recognised in this way and, after discussions with the respective First Ministers, it was decided that each of the four home nations should be awarded separate George Cross medals.

George Cross awarded to NHS Wales for pandemic response

Health minister Eluned Morgan said Aneurin Bevan, the Tredegar-born MP for Ebbw Vale instrumental in the creation of the NHS, would have been proud of its performance in the last 18 months. “This award is not just to recognise those who work in the service today, but those who have worked in this loved institution since it was established,” said Ms Morgan. “It is hard to put into words how grateful we are to the NHS in Wales for everything they have done throughout the pandemic, going above and beyond the call of duty to treat, care and support us. “This award is a small token of our appreciation for the heroic service they have given and how indebted we are.
