A young patient has bravely spoken out about the quality of food served in hospitals. Audrina, a 12-year-old girl from Derby, has launched a petition demanding improvements to hospital meals.
Having recently undergone treatment for an aggressive form of cancer, Audrina praised the exceptional care provided by medical staff. However, she expressed significant disappointment with the taste and nutritional value of the food she received during her hospital stay.
