Why this petition matters

Started by Goran

International Medical Graduates (IMG) are becoming an becoming an important part of the health workforce in the UK. However, IMGs face significant challenges when they start their NHS journey. 

One of the major issues that IMGs face is finding a place to live. This has been particularly a problem recently with the cost of living crisis. Certain areas are particularly challenging as well because of local festivals and other cultural activities. 

We call, through this petition, on the NHS to provide temporary accommodation for few months for IMGs who join the NHS to allow them time to find a more permanent home.
