A permanent monument to the NHS on the 4th plinth in Trafalgar Square.
Commission a sculptor to design a statue of some kind that celebrates just how good the key workers of the NHS are.
And then fund the building of said monument. we can then add a list of the brave souls who lost their lives whilst doing their bit! Like on a war memorial.
My wife works behind the scenes in the NHS as does my Nephew. They and all NHS staff are doing a fantastic job under quite horrendous stress. If it wasn’t for them and many other key workers there would be many more people dying. It will give the families who have lost loved ones a place for them to go and remember them. It will also show how much the whole NHS is held in high esteem by the hole country. The 4th plinth needs a monument befitting it’s position and I think this is perfect.
