Thank you so much for all of your support and for helping us build this petition - we now have over 173,000 signatures and that’s amazing!

It is clear that the situation for patients and staff in the NHS will not improve without urgent funding. The safety of patients continues to be compromised, we have waiting lists that are never-ending and staff are leaving due to their conditions and pay.  Meanwhile, the cost of living crisis continues to grow and will put even more pressure on the NHS as health-inequality deepens and staff are unable to pay for fuel to be able to work and struggling with bills. We are taking our petition to Downing Street as part of the SOSNHS campaign. As a frontline staff member, I have seen firsthand what happens when the NHS is deliberately underfunded and understaffed. We won't let our patients be at risk, the situation needs addressing urgently if we want to continue to see free care for future generations with a workforce that is valued.

We will be handing in the petition to Downing St tomorrow - if you would like to join us we will be assembling at Old Palace Yard at 14:15pm
