Petition Action

Cancel health care workers student debt

Petition Details

Our NHS Health care workers have shown how essential they are. They have put themselves in harms way while many have sheltered. Many have paid the ultimate price.
Let’s clear their student debts.

Additional Information

Health care workers have shown how essential they are. They have put themselves in harms way while many have sheltered. Many have paid the ultimate price.
We do not ask soldiers to pay for their own training so why do we ask essential health care workers.
All existing debt should be written off for current workers and for all future health care workers it should be written off after 5 years NHS service.
