On Sunday 14th June 2015, the second Walk for Wards took place at Trebah Gardens near Falmouth, raising money for the Royal Cornwall Hospitals Charity.

Walk for Wards is part of a national initiative and at RCHT was used to raise funds for the Royal Cornwall, St Michael’s and West Cornwall hospitals. Walkers can raise money for individual wards, departments or RCHT’s general charitable fund.

The walk was supported by many departments and staff from within the hospital's trust together with local people who were keen to support their local hospital.

Please stay away from our hospitals and care homes if you’ve had sickness or diarrhoea in the last 48 hours because it’s affecting people’s ability to recover from serious illness.

It is also important that people should avoid going to the emergency department at Royal Cornwall Hospital in Truro if they are able manage the symptoms themselves; you should still go to the emergency department if you need emergency medical attention, but please tell staff if you have diarrhoea or sickness symptoms.

CHBN is delighted to have scooped the Silver Award for Best Special Event coverage at the National Hospital Radio Awards 2024, which took place in Winchester.

The programme provided direct live coverage of the concert given in the RCHT Chapel to celebrate last year's 75th anniversary of the NHS. The programme consisted of speeches given by staff, administrators, executives and patients, along with songs by the magnificent Four Lanes Male Choir.
