Honour the NHS heroes who have died whilst serving during the Covid-19 crisis
Honour the NHS heroes that have died as a direct consequence of working in the NHS covid-19 arena by either:
1. Naming the streets in their towns in their memories or
2. Adding their names to the street signs on the streets where they lived.
The Govt has declared we are at war against Covid-19. Our NHS staff are working selflessly with limited protection & resources to provide a high degree of care for those suffering from the virus. Many of the staff have themselves been infected and subsequently died.
As we remember the sacrifices made by our soldiers at war, we also need to remember the sacrifices made by our NHS staff that have gone into work to alleviate the suffering of others knowing that they may themselves become infected

The Government e-Petitions Team gave the following reason:
Decisions about street names are a matter for the local authority in which they are located, not the UK Government or Parliament.
