To mark the 75th birthday of the NHS, 25 portraits of Oxford University Hospitals staff have been taken, aiming to give an insight into the diverse range of people, professions and locations that make up the Trust.

The project is titled “Our Future In Focus” with the images shared online and appearing at an in-person exhibition.  

All the pictures were taken by members of the Clinical Photography team.

Deputy Sister, Nicola Rossiter, at the Katharine House Hospice and Derek Peedle, a Refuse Porter at the Horton General Hospital are amongst those featured.

Professor Meghana Pandit, Chief Executive Officer at OUH, said: “Our future in focus is a collection of 25 OUH staff portraits which offer a unique insight into the diverse range of people, professions and locations that make up OUH – many are of colleagues who work in roles ‘behind the frontline’, and so may not be immediately visible or well known to the public, and the photographs were taken across multiple sites and in the community.

“Thank you to everyone who has contributed to this project and created what I hope you agree is a stunning collection of images to mark the NHS 75th anniversary – all photography, design and online hosting has been done in-house which shows the talents of our colleagues across the Trust.

“I would also like to thank Oxford Hospitals Charity whose funding and support have made Our future in focus possible.”

The gallery can be viewed here.

Three members of the OUH Clinical Photography team – Emily Arthur, Ella Barks and Caroline Green – were finalists in the ‘Our NHS at 75’ national photography competition run by NHS England, in partnership with Fujifilm.

Their photos will be displayed in a dedicated exhibition in Fujifilm’s House of Photography in London during July and August.
