Strike a medal to be presented to all current NHS staff in gratitude.

Each year on Remembrance Sunday our honoured and beloved service personnel and veterans wear their gallantry and service to the nation on their chest to the respect and admiration of all. The NHS are doing no less to defend UK citizens from peril today than our brave armed services have during conflict over the years. We would like to see this courage and dedication recognised by a grateful nation.
