Book of thanks for key workers

Charnwood residents can pay tribute to the NHS, care workers and key workers.

An online book of thanks is being co-ordinated by the Borough Council to help residents show and record their support for people who are keeping critical services running.

It's available via the Council's website and the comments will be compiled, collated and shared with NHS colleagues and other agencies later in the year.

Cllr Jonathan Morgan, Leader of Charnwood Borough Council, said: “We owe so much to our NHS and it is heart-breaking to know that people are losing their lives as they battle to save others. Many others are placing themselves at great risk to care for the vulnerable or deliver services which are critical to our daily lives.

“As a nation we will be forever grateful to them.

“This Book of Thanks is an opportunity for the people of Charnwood to further demonstrate their support.

“It is a small gesture of our appreciation and I would encourage people to leave a comment and help make sure the NHS, care workers and key workers know how much the people of Charnwood appreciate them.”
