Make public transport on buses and trains free for NHS workers & volunteers
Us NHS workers are risking our lives everyday in this war against the infamous Covid-19 Coronavirus. Whether we are front line staff or running outpatient clinics, we are choosing to come in to work to save lives because we care.
Please make public transport on buses, tubes and trains free to enable more staff to come into work and help those in need.
Making public transport free will:
- help staff who are looking after their unemployed family during this difficult time.
- help staff that have retired to return to hospitals.
- help staff to afford temporary housing to avoid spreading the virus to vulnerable family members
- allow volunteers to help the NHS without having to worry about travel costs
