In a joint statement Sue Musson, Chair, and James Sumner, Chief Executive, of Liverpool University Hospitals NHS Foundation Trust, said:
"All of us at Liverpool University Hospitals are deeply saddened by the death of Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II. Throughout her reign The Queen was the epitome of public service and demonstrated an admirable commitment to duty, particularly at times of national crisis.
“We will remember her unwavering support for the NHS and also the support the Royal Family has shown our Trust. It meant a huge amount when the Duke of Cambridge held a virtual visit with our staff at the height of the pandemic and when His Royal Highness visited Aintree University Hospital to open the Urgent Care and Trauma Centre in 2017.
“While The Queen was a presence in all of our lives and her loss will be felt by many, she was also a mother, grandmother and great grandmother and our heartfelt condolences are with the Royal Family at this time.”
