To help 'heroic' NHS staff battling the coronavirus outbreak, Airbnb is helping to provide free accommodation via its Open Homes platform.
March 30, 2020 - 11:05 BST Nichola Murphy Following the lead of France and Italy, Airbnb hosts across the world can now offer their homes to NHS workers and healthcare professionals battling the coronavirus outbreak. Caregivers, relief workers and first responders have been working around the clock over the past few weeks, and the company has found a way to help show their appreciation for those giving up their time and risking their own health for the sake of others.
The program, which has already been introduced in Italy and France, aims to house over 100,000 COVID-19 healthcare professionals worldwide, and UK hosts have already offered nearly 1,500 places to stay."The entire country is behind our heroic NHS and medical staff as they battle the coronavirus outbreak," said Patrick Robinson, Director of Public Policy at Airbnb.
