A COUNTY firm has put up special rainbow signs to say thank you to NHS staff.

DRPG, based in Hartlebury, put up one of the signs near the Worcestershire Royal Hospital and CEO Dale Parmenter said: “We are proud to have made some of our brave frontline workers smile today.

"The sacrifices people are making in such scary and uncertain circumstances is truly humbling and any small act of support we can make to give our thanks for their hard work, is our pleasure.

"We hope this art continues to bring a smile to people’s faces and encourages them to keep up their amazing work.”

County council leader Simon Geraghty said: "The installation by DRPG is wonderful and a really fitting tribute to our NHS colleagues who have worked tirelessly during this pandemic.

"We were more than happy to help with this tribute in whatever way we could, and it is great that has brought a smile to so many people’s faces during this testing time."

DRPG worked together with the Worcestershire County Council to create the surprise installation on Charles Hastings Way just outside Worcestershire Royal Hospital, Worcester.

The multicoloured artwork depicts seven rainbows, thanking the NHS and key workers for showing their true colours throughout the crisis and working hard to protect all those in need.

The installation was created with the aim of bringing a smile to people’s faces and brightening up essential workers’ days.

Put in place on early on the morning of May 14 by DRPG’s technical production team, the seven rainbows were greeted with delight by those heading into the hospital in the morning to start their shifts and will continue to stand and bring joy to those that see them.
