A WREXHAM company has helped transform a hospital field into a wellbeing path in memory of Captain Sir Tom Moore. The path, which will provide an area of relaxation and reflection for staff, as well as patients and their loved ones, is being built at The Robert Jones and Agnes Hunt Orthopaedic Hospital (RJAH). The wheelchair-friendly path will provide a calming space for staff members to enjoy their lunch or a place where colleagues and patients can take a walk or a break outdoors. It will be named Captain Sir Tom Moore’s Path of Positivity. Last spring, the nation was captivated by the late Captain Sir Tom Moore’s extraordinary fundraising efforts, where he had initially hoped to raise £1,000 by completing 100 laps of his garden by the time he reached his 100th birthday. However, the war veteran went on to beat this target and ended up raising a staggering almost £33 million for NHS Charities Together.
