This week marked a very special moment when we said goodbye to 16-year-old Bronwyn after 219 days spent as an inpatient! 👏👏👏 Bronwyn was given a guard of honour as she left Ward L52 for the last time after spending Christmas, New Year, Easter AND her 16th birthday with us!

'...he's back to exactly how he should be' The words Brooklyn's dad needs to hear from Surgeon Colin as Brooklyn comes round after successful surgery, tonight on #SavingLives in Leeds. Such a moving story. Thank you Craig and Brooklyn. @BBCTwo @Label1tv @LeedsHospitals

Our fab play team held a special end of treatment party for Clara - who rang the end of treatment bell earlier this week - with family and friends on L50.🌈 There was food, dressing up and even a visit from not one but three of the amazing Giggle Doctors! #ICCD2019 #PlayMatters

We're celebrating #BigYellowFriday for @tweetcldf ! 🍌 It's a little known fact that every week in the UK 20 children are diagnosed with liver disease. Today, our ward teams are shining a light on childhood liver disease - and our play team literally went bananas! 🍌😂

What a magical day at @Leeds_Childrens . Our patients have enjoyed their pre-Christmas chats with Father Christmas either in person or virtually. We were thrilled to welcome Father Christmas and all his helpers back to @LeedsHospitals with a little help from @LDShospcharity 🎅
