Award a medal to NHS staff & all key workers for their work in this pandemic.
Award a medal to all NHS staff and key workers to recognise the work and dedication of NHS staff and all key workers for their work during the coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic. A medal is a small token to show the Government's recognition of their bravery and service.
I have started this petition for the Government to recognise the work and dedication of NHS staff and all key workers for their work during the coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic. They are risking their own lives, to protect and keep as all safe.The medal should be awarded to all NHS staff who are now risking their own lives, caring for victims of coronavirus (COVID-19). It should also be awarded to key workers such as postmen, refuse workers, retail workers, care workers, lorry drivers, teachers.
