A NEW hospital edition of the popular card game Top Trumps to raise money for the NHS includes Oxford's John Radcliffe.

The Headington hospital, which has been on the frontline of Oxfordshire's coronavirus efforts, is one of 30 in the pack. Also included are the UK's oldest hospitals and one of its newest, the London Nightingale Hospital, opened last month.

The John Radcliffe's card tells players the hospital was opened in 1972 and has 832 beds.

It also has a 'fame' score of one and 'rainbow rating' of six.

The card states: "A leading centre for medical research. The hospital is named after an 18th-century physician and Oxford University graduate. John Radcliffe, the distinctive large, white-tiled structure occupies a prominent position on Headington Hill, on the outskirts of Oxford."

The Top Trumps Britain at its Best: Hospitals is part of a twin deck with one featuring key workers.

Claire Simon, global marketing manager at Top Trumps, said: “We are sure that this new edition of Top Trumps can lift spirits in this very challenging and unprecedented period of time, as well as raising money for the NHS, with all net proceeds going direct to the NHS.”

Both are available for £5 at winningmoves.co.uk, with £1.50 from each dual deck sold going to the NHS.
