Clap for our Carers and all other key workers

At 8pm tonight (Thursday) once again people around the nation will be heading out onto their doorsteps, balconies, into their gardens or standing at their windows to join in the ‘Clap for our Carers’ campaign.

The campaign is asking for as many people as possible to join in a round of applause to thank all doctors, nurses, carers, GPs, pharmacists and other NHS staff working putting their lives on the line to help those affected by Coronavirus, as well as all other key workers who are helping to keep the country running.

Many towns across the Island showed their support last Thursday, so don’t forget to add your applause, bang your pots and pans as some did, to show your support for the real heroes in the fight against Coronavirus.
