Nowhere is hygiene more thorough than among our frontline workers, working around the clock to treat patients while minimising the spread of this virus. After a recent stint in hospital (welcoming a new baby to his family and our community!), one of our members noticed how dry the hands of maternity ward staff are becoming.
We wholeheartedly believe that the NHS is a public service, not a charity, and that it is the duty of our government to properly fund this indispensable service. We worry that recent public fundraisers to provide PPE for frontline workers are needed only as a result of this woeful underfunding. While we do not accept this underfunding, we do recognise that as individuals and communities, we can try and fill the gaps.
Whilst clapping at 8pm on Thursdays are a great way to bring attention and show our support. We hope that the conversation around this continues. Clapping alone is not going to #SaveTheNHS!
Inspired by mutual aid groups and volunteer networks working hard, up and down the country to support vulnerable people, we are dropping off over £350 worth of our hemp seed moisturising oil to Royal Berkshire Hospital local to us.
And in this spirit, we will also be offering NHS Staff one third off our moisuristing oil or 15% off everything online. Thank you NHS!
