Curated and edited by Adam Kay (author of multi-million best seller This Is Going to Hurt), Dear NHS features household names telling their personal stories of the health service. Contributors include Paul McCartney, Emilia Clarke, Stephen Fry, Sir Trevor McDonald, Sir Michael Palin, Naomie Harris, Dame Emma Thompson, Joanna Lumley, Miranda Hart, Ed Sheeran, David Tennant, Dame Julie Walters, Emma Watson and many, many more.

The NHS is our single greatest achievement as a country. No matter who you are, no matter what your health needs are, and no matter how much money you have, the NHS is there for you. In Dear NHS, an amazing list of inspirational people come together to share their stories of how the national health service has been there for them and changed their lives in the process. By turns deeply moving, hilarious, hopeful and impassioned, these stories together become a love letter to the NHS and the 1.4 million people who go above and beyond the call of duty every single day - selflessly, generously, putting others before themselves, never more so than now.

They are all heroes, and this book is our way of saying thank you.

Beautiful

Every American should listen to this. This is beautiful. I was laughing and crying throughout the whole thing. My daughter was an ER Nurse in Florida throughout the pandemic. We have to start taking better care of these extraordinary people. I wish we had something like the NHS in the U.S.

Lovely, hilarious and harrowing.

As an ICU nurse, this was an absolute honour to listen to. Thankyou for sharing these stunning stories with us, I was with each of you in every second of listening; laughing, gasping, weeping. We are better together, and the beautiful NHS and these stories, exemplify that wholeheartedly. I would recommend this to ANYONE, because healthcare is humanity! Thankyou, again.

This Audiobook seems to be missing a LOT!

It's lovely, but it seems to be missing loads of stories. There are supposed to be 100. There are not. Lots of people's stories are missing from this audiobook. is there any way to fix this? I would love to hear them all in their entirety. Thanks.
