Marks & Spencer is donating thousands of T-shirts bearing the message "We are the NHS" to dress doctors, nurses, staff and volunteers at the new NHS (National Health Service) Nightingale London hospital. Additionally, over 4,000 pyjama sets will be donated to NHS Derbyshire, a trust located close to the M&S Castle Donington distribution centre. Marks & Spencer said the PJs can be used as scrubs by doctors and nurses at NHS Royal Derby Hospital.

The food section of the department store is also making efforts to better support the National Health Service, offering a new, twice-weekly free food delivery service for NHS workers at St Mary's Hospital, Paddington and Great Ormond Street Hospital. This is in addition to an NHS special shopping hour, introduced at M&S stores three weeks ago to make it easier for NHS, emergency service and health and social care workers to buy the products they need.
