The Works is a discount retailer selling books, stationery, art supplies, toys, games and gifts. With over 500 stores across the UK and an online shop, it’s one of the better options for NHS staff looking to pick up books and gifts without paying full price, and they do offer a genuine NHS discount.
Does The Works offer an NHS discount?
Yes. The Works offer 10% off for NHS staff, available online only. There is no NHS discount available in store. The discount is applied at checkout using a code, so use the link above to access the current offer.
One thing worth knowing: the discount code won’t stack on top of items that are already reduced. If a book is in a sale or part of a multibuy promotion, the NHS code may not apply to it. Worth checking at checkout before assuming the saving will come off everything in your basket.
What does The Works sell?
The Works covers a broad range of products. Books are their biggest draw and they stock everything from popular fiction and children’s books to cookbooks, gift books and educational titles, typically at prices well below RRP. Beyond books they also sell:
- Art and craft supplies. Paints, sketchbooks, colouring books and craft kits. Good value for both adults and children.
- Stationery. Notebooks, pens, planners and desk accessories.
- Toys and games. A decent range of children’s toys, board games and puzzles, particularly around Christmas.
- Gift ideas. Candles, mugs, novelty items and seasonal gifts at budget-friendly prices.
