Ryde staff at Granny Smith Festival The team is still buzzing from the success of last weekend’s Granny Smith Festival. Thank you to everyone who stopped by the Ryde Hospital stall. More than 500 people stopped by the Ryde Hospial stall for a free blood pressure check. The team also held hand hygiene demonstrations. A huge thank you to all our staff who volunteered on the day. Did you know the annual Granny Smith Festival celebrates the life and legacy of one of our district’s most famous citizens, Maria Ann Smith - aka Granny Smith - who, back in 1868, ‘accidentally’ grew the first batch of little green apples that bear her name and are now grown all over the world.
