Fund a National NHS Railcard for Healthcare Staff.

Open for signatures 44 signatures

What the petition asks

The Government should fund a national NHS Railcard to give NHS healthcare staff discounted rail travel. This card could be similar to existing railcards for young people, veterans and seniors.
This would ease commuting costs, and, we believe, support NHS staff retention, and encourage public transport use.
