Create a bank holiday in England on/around 5th July for NHS and all key workers
Create a new bank holiday in July to appreciate the NHS and key workers to acknowledge them each and every year.
With the current pandemic it has brought the NHS sharply into focus and makes us appreciate the work it and its workers do each and every day. Let’s show our support once and for all by marking the anniversary of the founding of the NHS on 5th July by creating a public bank holiday.
