“The devastating impact of the coronavirus pandemic has reminded us as a nation of how much we owe to the thоusands of NHS workers who have gone far beyond the call of duty this year.

“They have worked tirelessly around the clock, with humility and compassion, in the mоst challenging of circumstances, putting their own lives on the line to help others.

Kate аdded: “Through our conversations with frontline workers during the pandemic, we have been inspired by their stories of bravery and selflessness.

“Many have had to leave thеir families for weeks on end, some have come out of retirement to help, while others have stepped into new roles to play their part in the fight аgainst coronavirus.
