This new savings benefit from Blue Light Card comes as the prices of everyday groceries and household necessities keep increasing. The major supermarket chain hopes the deal will "genuinely make a difference to those on the front line". The announcement about saving money arrives alongside new research from Which? indicating that the average weekly grocery bill at Morrisons is £187.65.

Considering this, essential workers who can take advantage of the exclusive offer available every Friday this month can save nearly £20, approximately £18.77 per use, according to Blue Light Card.

Joe Mathison, the head of strategic partnerships at Blue Light Card, said: "Families across the country are feeling the impact of price hikes, with grocery costs at an all-time high.

"We want to do everything we can to thank the everyday heroes that make up the Blue Light community, so we're pleased to partner with Morrisons once again to offer key workers extra support this February.

"Savings like this can genuinely make a difference to those on the front line - and it couldn't be easier to access."
