Give foreign NHS & care home staff who are on work visas permanent residency.

Petition Details

Due to the COVID-19 pandemic we are asking NHS & care home staff to risk their lives. This is a chance to show them how much we appreciate it. The visa should be free & back-dated to 1 March 2020 to ensure the family of staff who have died of COVID-19 are protected from any immigration issues.
