Nursing Medal of the British People awarded to all nurses and carers.
All nurses and care staff need recognition for their efforts during the pandemic. This is a fitting award from the British People which can be worn on their uniforms in recognition for their excemplory service.
Lots of people will have ideas and I researched what was possible and the florence nightingale award only goes to a limited number of nurses per year. This award could go to all nurses and care givers that have been at the front of the efforts.
