Create a symbol of honour and appreciation for Covid-19 participant NHS workers
To recognise our health workers for the selfless dedication to our communities and the daily risks they take with a lasting symbol of our appreciation that we may recognise in the future, and thank them personally. These to be presented individually, maybe postumously, similar to a military medal.
To provide a thought promoting reminder which we can all recognise and thank them personally for the bravery they have shown and the deication to their communities. Something for all of us to maintain the memories of what is unfolding all around us. Something which can also be presented postumously for those workers we have sadly lost, so their families may keep a symbol of all of our heartfely appreciation for the cost they have paid. An anonymous fleeting handclap doesn't meet what they do.
