Pay rise for ALL NHS & social care staff.

What the petition asks
Recognise that NHS and social care staff are worthy of a payrise after risking their lives throughout this pandemic. Social care staff are struggling on minimum wage and never get a mention, unless they are being blamed for outbreaks. A clap is not good enough for these heroes!!
All healthcare staff, NHS and social care (homes/community) have battled through this hard time and deserve recognition. Social care is grossly underpaid and care homes under funded. Why should staff and residents suffer whilst other sectors have a payrise??
