Every Key Worker given official recognition for their work throughout covid-19

Closed 29 signatures

What the petition asks

I want every single key worker to have an officially recognised award, such as a medal or certificate for their dedication to keeping essential business moving throughout Lockdown.
During the Coronavirus Pandemic many businesses were considered a bare essential to keeping the country moving and continued to work on the front line, putting themselves at great risk, while everybody else was tasked with staying home. Many of these workers, such as delivery drivers who had the task of delivering much needed goods to people isolating at home, as many of the supermarkets and shops closed down. I that feel all key workers should be officially recognised for their efforts.
