Nurses at a Glasgow hospital have been lifting the spirits of patients by donning “funky scrubs” made from donations of bright colourful fabric.
A group of 20 volunteers have been developing vibrant scrubs for workers on the frontline at Glasgow Royal Infirmary. The garments have been produced through donations of bright bedding and children’s duvet sets provided by Hyndland Secondary School in the city.Final products produced by the volunteers have boosted the morale of patients and staff alike - with some nurses saying that they are worn like a ‘badge of honour’.
Kay Muir was inspired to start the scheme based off the hard work put in by her niece Gillian Higgins, who works as a surgical trainee at the Glasgow hospital.
