The Queen joked with NHS leaders and healthcare workers today as she hosted a small audience at Windsor Castle to honour Britain’s health service with the George Cross. The Queen presented NHS frontline workers and execs with the George Cross, the highest honour for ‘non-operational gallantry’. She joked with NHS Scotland CEO Caroline Lamb, confirming that she shouldn’t put the George Cross in her handbag. The 96-year-old was joined by Prince Charles as she handed out the medal, second only to the Victoria Cross, and heaped praise on NHS leaders from four countries over the UK’s handling of the vaccine roll-out during the pandemic.Credit Daily Mail
