Rejected petition Free parking & accommodation in UK cities for NHS workers during COVID-19 crisis

We in the NHS are willing to fight this COVID-19 crisis head on. However in major cities it's hard and risky to get around. Our priority is to stay virus free and continue working. Free parking and a place to stay if members of our household need to self isolate would make this much easier.

More details

So we can continue to sustain key NHS services and work safely, minimising risk to patients and each other.
