A retro tribute to the Sunderland nurses who have done incredible work for decades - how many of these do you recognise?

And let’s not forget the heroic work they have done for decades up to now.

We have selected 11 photos of some of the nurses we should all be thanking for their remarkable efforts over the years. We will also be paying tribute to other health staff in the days to come.

Do you remember these scenes? Or is there another health worker you would like us to pay tribute to?

Get in touch to tell us more.

And don’t forget to find out more about Sunderland’s health heroes – as well as reading the latest updates on the Coronavirus – on the Sunderland Echo website.
