Hide Ad"Myself and my colleagues were facing both physical and emotional challenges and so I launched ’NHSessions’ to lift spirits and celebrate the hard work of our frontline workers.
"It all started with a DJ set in my scrubs in my kitchen after a night-shift that I posted on Instagram, followed by performances from talented upcoming and established artists.
"Overnight NHSessions received strong support from the likes of Wayne Lineker, BBC Radio 1 DJs, KISS FM DJs, Julius Cowdrey (singer and previously in Made in Chelsea), Ryan Prescott (Coronation Street), Martin2Smoove (Eve’s tour DJ), DJ Cuppy, Disciples and many others.
"It was having an amazing impact around the world, I was overwhelmed by the support and energy behind NHSessions so I kept going.
