Emma Scott (right) was eight in the original photo and is now a paediatric staff nurse at Leeds General Infirmary. She lives in Garforth near Leeds with her partner and two children.

Chris said: “Richard and Caroline, I knew well from our NHS days and he reminded me of the picture, which I had forgotten about, that takes pride of place on their wall.

"It had faded and so after hours of searching I found the negative which led to us all meeting again and a set of new pictures for their wall as a memento of a great reunion in 2021.”
