I'm John Warburton with news that it’s being reported that some NHS staff facing the cost-of-living crisis are being given hardship grants from their local health trusts. According to investigations by The Guardian, workers are also being given low-cost meals, help with school uniforms, and access to food banks. Chief People Officer at the acute hospital trust in Leicester Clare Teeney told the paper’s health policy editor it was the NHS’s “moral responsibility” to help professional care staff whose earnings were, in real terms, going down. Help has also been going to workers in Derbyshire, Cambridge, Leeds and parts of London among other areas. For more care related stories stay with us here at Care Radio.
