Petition Action

Provide NHS staff and key workers with food parcels containing the essentials.

Petition Details

My son is a doctor in the NHS and like many others working long hours, not stopping for breaks. He works unsociable hours and is too tired to go out food shopping. He can't even get a loaf of bread. How can we expect these people to keep working if we don't support them.

Additional Information

Ask stores to make up boxes specifically for these people which can be collected at a specific point at the hospital as they leave.
