A SENIOR healthcare support worker based on South Ward at Fairfield General Hospital has looked back on a long career as the NHS celebrates its 73rd anniversary. Lynn Curran, 73, was born in January 1948, just months before the NHS was founded and remembers growing up and seeing the benefits of the health service. She said: “My brother is two years younger than me and he was one of the first to be born in Beech Mount, a maternity home in Harpurhey, and the free prescriptions were a massive help. “I remember getting scarlet fever when I was four and I was lucky I could get a prescription and have medicine at home.
