Well, if I had to eat an olive after every paper it would either make me mark them really fast to get it over with or put me off starting at all 😂 Rather you than me!

The most startling one is the pharmacy technicians - we’ve dubbed their uniform ‘Clinell Green’ because it’s the same colour as the packets of universal wipes. Perhaps even brighter 😂 Our pharmacy tech can’t keep a low profile, that’s for sure.

Postman blue is our SLT trim colour and you’re right, it’s greyish blue. I can’t remember if there’s a separate research colour or not.

English #SLPeeps #SLT - what are your thoughts on the new #NHSUniform for us? I quite like the colour (though the one I ordered didn’t fit at all 🫣)
