Huge cheers, rapturous applause and even tears filled the county as we joined together to clap for our incredible NHS staff.
Communities, families and whole streets whooped and bang pots and pans at 8pm last night. The whole country came together for the amazing and very emotional show of support.
Various videos and images were shared online and went viral to show the appreciation of a whole county, and nation to those workers battling the outbreak of coronavirus.
It comes as the country continues to stay home and follow the guidelines from the Government.
News teams across the UK rushed to streets to show live broadcasts of the uplifting and very emotional show of gratitude for the amazing NHS staff.
Commenting on the Echo Facebook page, Katie Purkiss said: “Waltham Crescent did an amazing job. Loads of people out clapping and cheering. Music too.”
Kerri Anne C said: “Without the nhs my children would not be here today all born premature as early as 24weeks... thankyou nhs 💙”
Mandy Marie, from Leigh, posted: "My husband and I joined our neighbours for a massive cheer, claps and fireworks for all those working hard to keep the world moving as organised and calmly as possible! Thank you all! Love from the Clive, Glyn, Mandy and Bella Dunnico-Evans 💞"
