Several retailers and services offer NHS-specific or Blue Light Card discounts that are worth using at Christmas, covering food and dining, clothing, tech, beauty and experience days. Confirmed deals change throughout the year, so checking the relevant page for each brand gives the most up-to-date position. The main confirmed NHS discounts are covered below by category.
Food and dining discounts for Christmas
Restaurant chains with confirmed NHS or Blue Light Card discounts include Pizza Hut, which gives Blue Light Card holders 25% off, and Domino’s, which offers a Blue Light Card discount on collection orders. The full list of restaurant and dining discounts is on the restaurants discounts page.

Mobile phone gifts
O2 gives 25% off airtime plans with code NHS01, and Vodafone gives 25% off pay monthly contracts through the Advantage NHS scheme. These can make new phone contracts a cost-effective Christmas gift when purchased directly through the network. Further mobile deals are on the mobile phones discounts page.
Beauty and fragrance gifts
Charlotte Tilbury gives Blue Light Card holders 20% off, making it one of the stronger discounts in the luxury beauty sector for NHS staff. Lookfantastic offers savings on a broad range of branded beauty products. Further confirmed deals are on the health and beauty discounts page.
Experience days and activities
Experience day vouchers make a popular Christmas gift for NHS staff to give or receive. Several providers offer confirmed NHS or Blue Light Card discounts. The full range is on the experience days discounts page.
Combining discounts with sale pricing
Most NHS discount codes cannot be stacked on top of sale pricing, as retailers typically restrict combining offers. Where that applies, comparing the discounted NHS price against the sale price determines which gives the better saving. The Black Friday and Cyber Monday guide covers how this works in more detail across the major sale periods of the year.
