Hi,
Had some success with other hospitals in London by sending letters enquiring after a relative to, say, The Archivist' or 'Personnel' at the relevant hospital.
Hughes - Llangedwyn, Llanfechain, Llanrhaiadr, Llansilin
Roberts - Llandisilio, Montgomeryshire
Davis - Caterham, Surrey
Mitchell - Windygates, Fife
Hayes - Radcliffe
Edwards - Llanyblodwell

Anything is worth a try.
I notice she was travelling 1st. class which would be unusual for a nurse.
I also notice under "other" the name C.M. Redhead.

no I didn't find out who that was.

I'm not sure if it's the woman I'm looking for but I'm maybe 85/sure it's her x

You are fortunate, Katie. The National Hospital for Neurology & Neurosurgery (as it is now known) in Queen Square - note "Queen", not "Queens" - has a very well preserved archive. Much of their material, including staff records, has been digitised but is not available directly online. You can, however, request copies of documents via its website https://queensquare.org.uk/archives/about/archives
