Thousands of knitted hearts sent to Covid patients in hospitalpublished at 08:58 British Summer Time 5 May 2020
Thousands of knitted hearts have been sent to a Glasgow hospital to help connect coronavirus patients and their loved ones.
One heart is given to the patient while the other is sent out to their next of kin, who may be unable to visit.
More than 4,500 have been sent to Glasgow Royal Infirmary after an appeal from intensive care nurse Liz Smith.
So many have come in, they are now being shared with other wards and hospitals across the city.
