Petition Fund free PCR Home Covid tests for key workers entering the UK
Key workers, such as NHS staff and teachers who test weekly (as per government guidelines) and have had both vaccinations shouldn’t have to pay for a private Covid test when going abroad and upon return, especially those travelling to see their loved ones.
More details
Key workers have worked tirelessly throughout the pandemic and risked their lives and of those they love. Not all Key workers are fortunate enough to have their loved ones living in the UK and want to return to their countries to see their families. Many Key Workers are tested weekly within their own organisation and have evidence of testing so shouldn’t be required to pay a fee to travel home.
