Leigh Ward was what was known as a Geriatric ward, she worked there for a few years as well as on other wards over the years.She is standing at the back in the white uniform.Over the years she had worked in all sorts from Maternity to geriatric wards and was at the hospital until moved to Southend upon the closure of Rochford.
