A poem has been penned to help children understand how NHS medical care works and honour the service in its 60th year. When the NHS turned 60 in June, the nation looked back over six decades of free health care since the NHS's inception in 1948. The first babies born under its watch were interviewed, while experts pointed out the innovations that revolutionised care. But now the NHS is attempting to connect with a new generation. This week it unveiled a poem it commissioned from children's laureate Michael Rosen and artwork by top illustrators including Helen Oxenbury, Tony Ross, Ed Vere, Axel Scheffer and Nick Sharratt. "These are the hands" is designed to teach children about the NHS and its history - BBC
