What the petition asks

Key Workers Appreciation Petition. They Care Now, we now need to show how much we care. Our aim is to support & secure Government funding that will allow all Front-Line Key Workers in NHS & Social Care to have a Paid Holiday to recover from the stresses of working through the Covid19 emergency

They were our families when we could not be with our own. They showed us true dedication in the time of our Nations need during this emergency.

They held our family’s hands when we could not hold them ourselves. They dried the tears of those who suffered in isolation when we could not dry them for ourselves.

Yet, through all their hard work, long hours and dedication they sacrificed seeing their family and risked infection themselves, so that we could eventually be reunited with our family.
