The simple hack that can save healthcare workers money on their holidays
With cost-of-living pressure ever-present in the background of most everyday lives, finding some spare pennies for a getaway feels more difficult than ever, and if there’s anyone who deserves discounts on a holiday, it’s healthcare workers.
That’s why, when we became aware of the simple hack that can save those working in healthcare services money on holidays, we thought we’d help spread the word.
We’re sure lots of you working within the sector already know plenty about this booking strategy, but for anyone who doesn’t, how do you fancy saving up to half a grand on your next jolly?
Here’s how it works…
With searches for ‘holiday voucher code’ up by 73% on Google, and even the likes of TikTok seeing ‘money saving tips’ up by 45%, travel agency TUI have decided to team up with the Health Service Discounts platform for 2026.
Providing those who work for the NHS with a ‘Holidays for Heroes’ (HfH) access code on various popular peak-season trips, this exclusive discount can be added on top of all other seasonal TUI deals, including the company’s ‘First Choice’ package holidays.
With the HfH code alone guaranteeing workers an extra £100 off their bookings, play your cards right, and you could get up to £200 in total discounts overall.
How to access the healthcare ‘Holidays for Heroes’ deal
Separate from standard Blue Light card savings, here’s how it works, and don’t worry, it’s all very simple:
- Sign up for Health Service Discounts
- Get your exclusive access code
- Enter your code at Step 2 of the TUI checkout
- That’s it – happy days!
Ella Foden-Lynch, Partnerships Manager for TUI, said in a statement: “Getting away is vital for wellbeing, especially for those in high-stress roles.
“With travel costs rising, affordable breaks are becoming harder to find, but by using discounts on flights, accommodation, and car hire, key workers can still enjoy quality time away. It’s not always about luxury; it’s about making rest and recovery realistic.”
So, for those of you healthcare heroes looking for a well-deserved break, we urge you to find an affordable holiday that suits you very soon. With cheaper airport pints also inbound later this year, here’s hoping you save even more spends for when you’re away.
