The general public are being encouraged to give a huge round of applause to NHS staff on Thursday 26 March 8pm.
The image below is being widely shared on social media to encourage people to #ClapForOurCarers — be it from their balcony, garden, windows or perhaps just outside your front door.
This mimics similar shows of support that have already happened in other nations, such as India.
