London Ambulance Service Brings Christmas Cheer to Croydon Hospital with #OperationChristmasPresent

In the true spirit of the season, the London Ambulance Service (LAS) has brightened the lives of children at Croydon Hospital as part of their heartwarming #OperationChristmasPresent initiative.

Delivering Smiles and Presents

Ambulance crews arrived at Croydon Hospital on their 14th stop of the day to distribute Christmas presents to children on the wards. The gesture, led by LAS staff like Nigel Flanagan, aims to bring joy and hope to young patients during the festive season.

Community Support

The initiative, which has been widely praised, highlights the commitment of emergency service workers not just to health and safety, but also to the emotional well-being of their communities.

The LAS has collaborated with local organizations, including Croydon Health Services NHS Trust, to ensure the success of this campaign. The aim is to remind young patients and their families that they are cared for, even in difficult times.

Spreading Festive Cheer

As children unwrapped their presents, the atmosphere was filled with smiles and laughter, a testament to the impact of small acts of kindness during the holidays. This year’s #OperationChristmasPresent continues to embody the LAS’s dedication to serving Londoners beyond their medical needs.
