NHS APPLAUSE - PLEASE JOIN IN

Options
Hi everyone, I'm sure you, just like me, have loved ones, family & friends working in the NHS & appreciate all that they are doing, risking their own lives to save others, during these worrying times.
At 8pm tonight the country is attempting to get everyone outside their house, staying safe of course, 2 metres apart if you don't have a front garden, to applaud & honour the amazing NHS staff to show our appreciation for what they are doing.
I hope that you will all join in to honour these wonderful people.
Stay safe everyone. If we follow the Government regulations we WILL get through this & hopefully those people who criticise our NHS staff will learn some lessons along the way & learn to appreciate exactly how hard they work.
Positivity is the key to success

    That was quite emotional! Even though we live in a rural spot, we left our warm sofa to go and clap under very dark and starry skies. Would you believe, we heard others clapping too?! Proud to recognise and celebrate all our health and other essential workers. Thank-you

  • Live in a Bristol suburb in sight of a hospital,a few fireworks going off and immediate neighbours out clapping. Also heard in the next road.

     went out with a few people from our complex  & was good to see lots of others waving & clapping out their windows, also heard lots on side streets/few fireworks let off, well done all who supported/joined in   smiley






    please be a responsible pet owner & spay/neuter your pets, too many strays & not enough homes for them sadly. k2u58ioz4c8e.png

    I live in a small village in North Devon and people clapped and banged kitchen pans in support of the NHS.
