A LEADING supermarket is extending its 10 per cent discount for NHS workers until the end of September.

The offer – initially introduced in April for 12 weeks as a thank-you to those on the frontline in the battle against coronavirus – will continue to be available at Morrisons stores in Johnstone, Paisley and Erskine.

And, for the first time, NHS staff will also be able to gain the discount if they are ordering a home delivery through Morrisons.com. They must join the Morrisons NHS Club online to receive this.

David Potts, Morrisons chief executive, said: “We want to thank everybody in the National Health Service for playing their part in the ongoing battle against coronavirus.

"We hope this measure, combined with our dedicated hours for NHS staff, will make life a little easier at this very challenging time for them.”

To benefit from the 10 per cent discount, shoppers need to present their NHS ID card when visiting Morrisons stores.
