The Nightingale Hospital (pictured above) is the UK’s first temporary hospital, created in under 2 weeks, to treat patients during this time of crisis.

Located in the east of London, The ExCel Centre will start with 500 beds open for coronavirus patients with space for up to 4,000.

It is fantastic to see such a great cause come to life in such a short period of time. With the number of cases currently increasing, temporary hospitals such as the Nightingale, are being considered across the United Kingdom.

We would like to say a big thank you to all the members of staff at the NHS and volunteers alike who are doing their utmost to serve the country during this time of need. A big thank you also to some of our members of  Magical Tours staff who are volunteering and giving their time to aid the cause as our founder Dr. Gil Cartland used to do.

With the coronavirus affecting over 150 countries around the world, it is inspiring to see so many countries helping each other.

In this time of crisis we are seeing many if not all countries showing solidarity. In France, President Macron has confirmed that they are alongside Italy, one of the most affected countries hit by the pandemic. France and Germany have delivered over 2 million mask and additional gowns to their Italian neighbours.

 

Yesterday March 27th 2020, President Trump of the USA confirmed that they are building thousands of ventilators not only to aid US citizens, but to also provide additional ventilators to many countries around the world who are in desperate need of them.

We can report that unfortunately the Prime Minster of the United Kingdom Boris Johnson has confirmed he has the coronavirus. He is following the recommended guidelines by staying at home and self-isolating.

We hope you are all staying safe and practising the advice laid out by the health experts. You can do your part by self isolating and practising good hygiene.

Here in Magical Tours we are supporting are employees by having them work from home, providing both both medical and economical support.

We will keep you updated with latest news and hope you are staying safe and keeping in good health during this difficult time.

 

 

 

Did you know that Boris Johnson, the UK Prime Minister, is a big fan of Winston Churchill – the prime minister that led the UK to victory during the second world war? Boris is such an admirer of Winston, that he even wrote a book about him.

It is inspiring to watch Boris as he faces the ongoing health crisis as the world unites forces to overcome the virus spread.

We thought it would be in good jest to share one of our favourite videos that highlights the Prime Minister’s sense of humour to help brighten your spirit during these challenging times.

Every year the Magical Tours company welcomes many people from all over the world and we expect to see you all soon!

We will keep you all updated on this blog with further news as it arrives.
