“It is with great pleasure on behalf of a grateful nation, that I award the George Cross to the National Health Services of the United Kingdom.”

Yesterday The Queen, accompanied by The Prince of Wales, presented the George Cross to representatives of the National Health Service at Windsor Castle.

The award recognises staff, past and present, across all disciplines and all four nations.

The Chief Executives and front line workers from each of the Home Nations accepted the award. Recipients included Modern Matron May Parsons (pictures front row, second left in group photo) from University Hospital Coventry who administered the world’s first COVID vaccine in December 2020.

🎖 The George Cross was instituted by King George VI on 24th September 1940, during the height of the Blitz, to recognise, “acts of the greatest heroism or the most courage in circumstances of extreme danger.”

This is only the second time during The Queen’s 70-year reign that the award has been presented collectively to an organisation or group of people (Her Majesty presented the George Cross to the Royal Ulster Constabulary in 1999).
