Decades of dedicated service by NHS staff working in communities across Lincolnshire have been celebrated with annual loyalty awards.
More than 50 staff from Lincolnshire Community Health Services NHS Trust (LCHS) received an award after clocking up an impressive 1,170 years of service between them.
Each person achieved either 20 or 30 years’ continuous service.
At a special buffet lunch, recognition was also given to Candice Pellett, a Senior Case Manager and Community Practice Educator from Bourne, who was given an OBE in the Queen’s New Year Honours list.
LCHS Chairman Dr Don White said: “It’s very humbling to hear of the commitment and dedication each of these individuals has made in their careers. The contributions they make every day to making other peoples’ lives better is what makes me so proud to be part of LCHS.
“I would like to thank them all on behalf of everyone at the trust.”
