Sarah and I worked together since 2009 and was she was a highly valued member of the team whom I totally trusted. She has left an incredible legacy and I miss her everyday. She had an unrivalled insight, predicted things precisely and was never afraid to say it how it was :) I always admired how she handled everything. Sadly we lost her to breast cancer, she battled hard and we thought she had beat it, but it came back and in her last days she was cared for at Barts; 2023 is Barts Health Trusts 900th anniversary. To recognise this impressive milestone we have launched one of our most important appeals to date, which is to raise funds to build a new dedicated Breast Cancer Centre at St Bartholomews Hospital. www.bartscharity.org.uk/campaigns/barts-900-breast-cancer-centre/ This new centre will bring together surgical services across the five Barts Health hospitals under one roof. Surgery is an important part of the patient journey, and over 80% of breast cancer patients have surgery as part of their treatment. This state-of-the-art facility will bring together surgery and post-surgery care in one place, improving every stage of the patient experience.
