    I don’t think it’s storewide as I haven’t seen it advertised but Specsavers in the GPO arcade gave my other half, who is an ED nurse, half price on new lens, frames, etc yesterday.

    The minute they heard she was a nurse they couldn’t have been nicer to her so must commend them for the appreciation they showed for her work

    There was a mention in one of the motoring threads of a garage giving discounts to medical staff but the actual garage wasn't named.

    Great idea for a thread by the way, I have family working in hospitals and I because I love them so much and worry about them I actually tried to persuade them to stay out of work but it's a calling not a job.

    Love you all!

    Caffe Nero, at least in the north, are offering free hot drinks to medical staff. When I said I'd prefer a coke as I was saving it for later, it didn't extend to that. Nice ladies at the counter though

    I read on an article earlier McDonalds are closing at 7pm on 23rd by the latest all HSE and emergency services staff will receive their order free of charge of presentation of relevant ID.

    Appreciate the sentiment, of the offers and the idea behind the thread, but I don't think any fast food places should be open, I'm glad McDonald's is shutting up for a while, and all other restaurants need to do the same.

    All non essential places need to close in fact, that'd be more rewarding than a free coffee.

    Oh well, give me an easy life and a peaceful death.

    Hopefully won't be needed, but I saw Seapoint Dental Clinic put up free emergency dental care to all healthcare workers

    GoCarIreland and Cork entrepreneur Pat Phelan have made 100 cars available totally free of charge in 20 locations nationwide for front line Health Care Workers.

    Fantastic generosity and cooperation.
