Rita Ora has paid tribute to her mum Vera as the NHS celebrates its 72nd birthday today.
The Hot Right Now singer, 29, said she was "so proud" of her mum, who has been working as a nurse throughout the coronavirus pandemic.
Taking to Instagram, Rita shared a photo of Vera in her nurse's scrubs alongside old black and white pictures from the health service's early days.
Included in the collection of snaps was a photo of Aneurin Bevan, who launched the NHS when he worked as Health Minister in Clement Attlee's post-war Labour Government.
Rita said she would be joining in tonight's clap to mark the special anniversary.
In the snaps her mum beamed for the camera as she sat working hard on her laptop.
A bottle of hand sanitiser and sachets of antibacterial wipes surrounded her on the floor.
Rita captioned the pictures: "Happy 72nd birthday to the NHS!!
"Thank you to all NHS workers for your incredible service during Covid-19 and beyond.
"I'll be joining at 5pm to celebrate all NHS workers past and present
"So proud of you mum!!! @veraora."
Rita added the hashtags #ClapForCarers #NHSBirthday #NHS72 #ThankYouTogether.
Britain had a special Clap for Carers tonight to celebrate the NHS.
The event was held weekly at the beginning of the coronavirus lockdown but will now be an annual event.
