Increase salaries for UK Paramedics

Rejected 11 signatures

What the petition asks

Today, Boris Johnson has announced a plan to give pay rises to Police, Armed forces, Military and Teachers. Although this is great... Paramedics, Emergency Care Assistants and other frontline key workers within the Ambulance service are not included. Make a plan to increase their salaries.
Ambulance crews face daily challenges whilst responding to emergencies, let alone during the coronavirus pandemic! Recognise and appreciate the work they have and continue to do. They make difficult decisions hourly, face unpredictable challenges both physically and mentally and truly deserve the appreciation in the form of a pay rise!
