brisfox Posted 31 March 2020 Posted 31 March 2020 Like most people I am so grateful to our brave doctors, nurses and medical staff in this health crises. I would like to say a small thank you on a personal basis. If you would like to nominate an NHS worker for a free ticket ( I have 5 to give away) to a Leicester City home game when footie restarts then email me at clangley@ psafinancial.co.uk This closes at midnight tonight 30th March) Please nominate somebody who has gone above and beyond the call of duty. You can’t nominate yourself. Let me know why the person deserves the ticket and I will pick the best ones. I would appreciate it if nobody moans about how unfair it is that they can’t enter. I’m trying to do something nice.
Leicester_Loyal Posted 31 March 2020 Posted 31 March 2020 FFS missed the cut off date of 30th March already Great gesture
Toddybad Posted 31 March 2020 Posted 31 March 2020 My mrs has a friend that works in ICU. She wouldn't want a ticket - I don't think so anyway - but would know some real heroes. Could try to find out if any are City fans. @Parafox is a paramedic too so he's a hero.
HankMarvin Posted 31 March 2020 Posted 31 March 2020 @Wymsey do you work for the NHS? said you was at work on a ward the other day in a post.

But I've got a season ticket - but thanks, for the mention. I know someone who works with someone with special needs and he says he would "love to" see Leicester play again, but hardly ever has time off away from work and the family commitments. He recently lost his brother.

FoyleFox Posted 31 March 2020 Posted 31 March 2020 Lovely gesture And thanks to those of you on here who work in the NHS or care and essential roles for your hard work.
Lambert09 Posted 1 April 2020 Posted 1 April 2020 I think you should open this up to people working at Sports Direct. They are the real heroes providing essential services to the community
Toddybad Posted 2 April 2020 Posted 2 April 2020 The deadline was a while ago but as somebody who knows the NHS inside out (though I'm very back office) there are loads of groups deserving of special mention at the moment. There are obviously the doctors and nurses within the hospitals, and the paramedics that get them there but there's also community nurses and health visitors that are being pulled into covid-19 wards away from their normal duties. The procurement and workforce teams are working extremely hard to get equipment and people where they need to be. Delivery drivers and volunteers are moving equipment around and some of the unsung heroes are the porters and cleaners that are putting themselves at risk. There's also a lot of redeployment a into support roles across the service for all sorts of things. And let's not forget that over half a million volunteers have put themselves forward to help with deliveries and contacting isolated people in high risk groups. Large numbers of people also work for companies that have stopped their normal work and begun manufacturing PPE (which is in woefully short supply) or equipment and fittings for the new hospitals. Incredible by everybody really.
