Helping your neighbours
With COVID-19 affecting people across the country, your neighbour may well need your help if they become unwell.
Could you help your neighbours?
You could help your neighbour by:
- Making sure they have enough food and other general supplies to cover a few days - there is no need to panic buy.
- Walking their dog.
- Picking up a prescription.
- Putting out their bins or taking in a parcel.
- Phoning, Skyping or Facetiming them so they can see a friendly face, which will help reduce their isolation.
- Sharing child care or other caring responsibilities.
- Checking if any of their planned appointments have been cancelled before they travel.
- Making sure they have some simple recipes to hand, if they are not the normal chef, or have done some batch cooking for the freezer.
