There has been a surge in the number of people signing up to work for the NHS
Between March 9 and April 8, there were 907,000 visits to the NHS Jobs website
There has been a surge in the number of people signing up to work for the NHS as the public shows support for the health service during the coronavirus pandemic.
A jump in applications on the NHS Jobs website shows that "more want to play their part" as the health service faces its greatest ever challenge, officials said.
There were 407,000 applications submitted last month - an increase of 13,500 on the same month last year.
NHS England said the jump was another demonstration of the public's support for frontline workers as they work to treat patients with Covid-19.
Millions have shown support through the weekly Clap for Carers and the NHS Volunteer Army initiative, and now people want to roll up their sleeves and join the health service.
The number of people registering an account on the NHS Jobs website has increased from 61,000 to 82,000 over the last month.
