Porch regularly plays music for the young patients in the ward, whilst they fight for their lives. When asked about her love for music, she says it’s powers of ‘pain relief’ are most important to her: “As part of my degree I did a bit of research around music therapy for pain relief, but even as a distraction technique it’s good. I think music speaks to everyone’s soul. When kids and families are going through the toughest time it just brings a bit of normality and joy.”
The NHS hero recently contracted the Coronavirus and was forced to take time off from her day to day life in the hospital. She is now back on the frontline, helping those in urgent need of care.
