It’s the 72nd birthday of the National Health Service this Sunday and we couldn’t be any more thankful for their presence.

It’s been an extremely challenging year and we couldn’t have made it this far without the skill, dedication and compassion of the 1.9 million NHS Staff who have gone above and beyond to help look after the nation in the battle against Covid-19.

In recognition of their efforts, on Sunday 5th July, we are all invited to once again take a moment to stop and applaud frontline staff as part of a #Thankyoutogether campaign.

In conjunction with this, there will also be a wide scale memorial held on Saturday 4th July in remembrance for many of those we lost due to the coronavirus. The #LightItBlue campaign will see famous landmarks, sport stadiums and monuments illuminate blue to mark the occasion. You can join in too by simply placing a light in your doorstep or window.

From us at Mediplacements, we would personally like to say a big heartfelt thank you to every individual that make up our amazing NHS services.
