While many of us feel like our lives are on pause as we self-isolate and social-distance in a bid to slow the spread of coronavirus, NHS staff and those at the frontline of the battle are busier than ever to help protect the lives of everyone.

When is the ‘clap for NHS workers’?

The mass round of applause for the NHS will take place tonight (Thursday 26 March).

The nationwide message of support comes four days after Boris Johnson instructed the general public to ‘stay at home’ to ‘protect the NHS and save lives’.

Since then, everyone who is able to has been working from home and only key workers are permitted to travel to and from work.
