🎂 Wishing a many happy returns to Archie, who was recovering after his operation at the #RHCYP today (on his BIRTHDAY!) & got a big surprise when Sam and Ewan from Edinburgh Rugby stopped by to see how he was doing. They were too late to share his toast though... 😉

If you are helping a loved one prepare for going to hospital make sure they pack their medicines to take with them 💊 It’s important we have a complete record of what is being taken so the right medicine can be given at the right time and to help minimise waste.
