NHS staff offered free Ibiza holiday to say thank you for their hard work
This is amazing!
All NHS staff are being offered a free holiday in Ibiza as a thank you for their hard work during the coronavirus pandemic.
The Ibiza regional government has announced it is backing a campaign called ‘Together for Health Heroes’ which offers ‘best in class’ accommodation to NHS staff.
More than 60 private properties have already been offered on the campaign, according to local paper Diario de Ibiza.
Rooms in hotel chains Atzaro, OD Hoteles, Concept Hotel Group and Aguas de Ibiza are also on the cards for NHS staff.
Tourism Councillor of Ibiza, Juan Miguel Costa, told the paper that the project seeks to: “compensate those who have looked after us, risking their lives in many cases, and who deserve that we all do our share to make sure they have holidays that meet high expectations”.
The holidays for European healthcare workers will take place next year in April, May and October.
Staff from hospitals, care homes and hospices in all COVID-19 hotspots will be included in the initiative.
A statement says: “It all started with a simple idea early in March. How can we say thank you to those fighting for the lives of our families, friends and communities?”
It continues: “How can we say thank you to those putting their own lives at risk for us?
“Together we are driving change by celebrating and rewarding those who put our community, family and friends first during the COVID-19 outbreak.
“Unprecedented times highlight exceptional people. We thank those who we have trusted with our lives, by gifting them our homes and hotels in Ibiza and across Europe.”
We all know someone who deserves this huge thank you, and they are currently looking for submissions – find out more here.
Supercity aparthotel is offering NHS staff the chance to apply for a free stay at one of their hotels.
The two-night stay is to be enjoyed with family or friends on any date from August until October.
Staycity is found in all of the UK’s best cities, from Manchester to Brighton and London. Each one is equipped with its own private kitchen, living room and the usual bedroom and bathroom.
Alexis Burton, CEO of Supercity said: “ Thanking the NHS after everything they have done for us was a no-brainer for our business.
“Our UK health carers have worked tirelessly throughout this pandemic, so when the time comes for them to take a well-deserved mini-break, we want to be there to help ensure that they feel safe in doing so.”
The free two-night stay is available to the first 120 NHS workers to apply. After that NHS workers will receive 50% off their stay.
