A memorial tree has been planted in the grounds of University Hospital Ayr to remember the people of Ayrshire and Arran who have lost their lives to Covid-19.
Melanie Hunter, from Ayr, arranged for the tree and a plaque to be erected as a way to remember those who died – and to thank the people who have worked throughout the pandemic.
Melanie sadly lost her dad, John Cowan, to Covid-19 on November 8, 2020.
