The national, regional and local media spotlight has been on cancer care providers - patients, staff and volunteers from across West Yorkshire and Harrogate - as tv, radio and the print media joined in the nationwide celebrations of the NHS 70th birthday.

The BBC Breakfast team broadcast live from the Bexley Unit at St James' Hospital in Leeds earlier today. The programme is no longer available to view on the BBC iplayer, but below are links to a number of the videos on their Facebook page.
