An 86-year-old man has said he has “plenty of years left on the clock” as he eyes a 1,000-mile walking challenge covering Barnet, Enfield and Haringey. Peter Murray will tackle the march in aid of North London Hospice after being inspired by Captain Tom Moore’s fundraising for the NHS. “I love walking,” said the 86-year-old. “It gets me out and I meet lots of lovely people and fill them in on what I’m doing it for. “I adopt a Legionaire’s slow marching walk, which conserves energy. “Even though I tend to push my wife’s trolley or a wheelchair to give me a bit more stability I can still cover up to 30 miles a day.”

New food hygiene-style star ratings will let patients and the public know how clean each ward is (Pixabay) Hospital wards will soon receive food hygiene-style star ratings after the first cleaning standards revamp in 14 years. The new star ratings will be on display to patients, staff and the public and are replacing the old percentage-score system in an effort to be more easily understood. Rating areas rather than separate staff groups will also, according to an NHS report, encourage “collective responsibility” and inspire “people to work together to achieve high standards”. The cleaning standards for hospitals have been revamped for the first time since 2007 to reflect “modern methods of cleaning” and lessons learned from the Covid pandemic.
