As Covid19 closes public places, workers are advised to work from home where they can, and shops see demand surge for essentials, please remember:
– those over 70 are particularly vulnerable, if you have family, friends or neighbours in this age bracket, please do check in on them
– younger people with underlying health conditions are also at risk, so be considerate of their needs and their fears
– please do not stock pile food, this creates problems with supply chains, there is enough for everyone and we are assured that shops have plans drawn up to deliver
– check the source of information before sharing, WHO is a good source, Jo Smith’s cousin’s neighbour’s Facebook Post might not be as reliable
– wash your hands, again and again and again
If you want to help your local community, please:
– sign up to one of the many Covid19 Support Networks to offer help
– donate to foodbanks
– look after your family (old and young)
– watch out for those who dont have family
– support local business
Above everything else, please stay safe and support our NHS
