Queen Elizabeth Hospital Covid-19 Ward has asked volunteers who can sew or knit, to create pairs of matching hearts. The hearts are given to all patients who can’t have family members with them in their darkest hour. One heart goes to the patient and the other to the family, so they can both feel together in some way and comforted. Here are hearts produced by Mrs Howes and Ruby.
