Nissan are provide more than 100 cars, free-of-charge for use by NHS workers.
The initiative will support frontline health workers should their normal mode of transport currently be compromised during the Covid-19 crisis.
The vehicles allocated for the initiative include Micra, Juke, Qashqai and all-electric LEAF. For those NHS workers offered a Nissan LEAF, the dealer will provide free access to the dealer’s charging facility.
The vehicles are provided at no cost and will include complimentary insurance and roadside assistance.
Only fuel or charging costs will need to be covered by the recipient. For insurance cover, the NHS worker has to be over 25 with no more than 6 points on their license.
NHS workers are asked to register their interest in receiving a free Nissan loan vehicle via an online registration form hosted on the Nissan UK website. Their details will be relayed to their local dealer who will be in contact to arrange the vehicle loan.
The initial number of vehicles is limited, so Nissan encourages those most in need of mobility to not delay their application. Applicants will be informed that they will be contacted if a car is available from a local dealer (within a 20-mile radius of their home).

Andrew Humberstone, managing director, Nissan Motor (GB) Ltd. said: “At a time when our healthcare workers are under immense pressure, Nissan wanted to offer its support in enabling their journeys to be trouble-free and more convenient.
“For the NHS worker who might rely on public transport and would prefer a car to drive instead; or for those whose car has experienced a breakdown and don’t have the time to arrange its repair; or there’s any other impact on your personal mobility, then please get in touch with Nissan and we will try to help you access one of our vehicles for free.”
