Staff at Stamford Bridge care home, in York, have set up a ‘Retired Nurses Club’ to celebrate the nursing profession and those who have dedicated their careers to it.

Staff and residents look forward to welcoming retired nurses on October 28 at 2pm to talk about their experiences throughout their working career as a nurse and welcome any old memorabilia like nurses uniforms.

They would also like to extend the invitation to current working nurses or those who aspire to work in the profession to get advice and see how things have changed over the years.

Stamford Bridge Care Home regularly holds events and activities for its residents and surrounding neighbours.
