The Bradford-based supermarket chain Morrisons has extended its 10 per cent discount to teachers, NHS staff and blue light card Holders to help with their Christmas and New Year shopping.

Morrisons said it has extended the ‘thank you’ discount until further notice.

A spokesman said: "The discount is available to NHS staff, teachers and blue light card holders to recognise and thank them for the care and support they have offered to the British public throughout the coronavirus pandemic.
