What the petition asks
Give NHS/care workers a pay rise that is more suitable
During the Coronavirus pandemic Doctors, nurses and other care staff have worked tirelessly to help stop the spread of the virus. They have been worn down and stretched thin to point where they have broken down. They have had to do this without the correct PPE. They’ve risked themselves for others and deserve a lot more than a clap. They are overworked and underpaid and it’s not fair. They are the true superhero’s.
