What the petition asks

We deal with families face to face on a daily basis, quite a lot of these families have sadly lost loved ones to covid. We also care for deceased who have tragically been taken by COVID. We feel we are the forgotten front line workers that have been forgotten during this pandemic.
We would like parliament to recognise that we are
Frontline workers and we are aat risk every time we go to work and put us as a priority to have the vaccine ASAP. We are passionate about our jobs, care about our families and cannot work from home
