NHS workers in Warrington are being reminded to claim a special 25 per cent discount on rail fares.
The reminder comes from train operator Northern who offer the discount on Advance Purchase tickets on its services – and it comes on the 76th anniversary of the creation of the NHS today (Friday).
The saving, which is available via Health Service Discounts, is delivered in partnership with Network – a company that specialises in employee discounts and benefits.
The discount is available on all of the train operator’s 2,500 services a day.
Stuart Taylor, head of commercial development at Northern, said: “We were very proud to launch this special discount last year – and we want to encourage as many NHS workers as possible to benefit.
“The discount is valid on each and every one of our services – and over time a 25 per cent discount really adds up.”
Northern launched its partnership with Network in March 2023.
As part of the scheme, the train operator also offers a 25 per cent discount on Advance Purchase tickets to carers, teachers and employees of registered charities.
Northern is the second largest train operator in the UK, with 2,500 services a day to more than 500 stations across the North of England.
