We are all supporting our healthcare workers as they work tirelessly on the frontlines in the fight against COVID-19. People around the world are showing their support and appreciation in different ways.
Here we are reproducing an image found on the webpage of Europol, which is a simple way how to say Thank You to all the healthcare workers on our islands.
Children are invited to download this image, colour it in, and post in online on the FES Facebook page, and also put in on display in windows and balconies. Let us show them that we appreciate their efforts and sacrifices.
