The Government has advised everyone to keep social contact to a minimum in a bid to combat the coronavirus. Those aged over 70, or with underlying health conditions, should observe this advice even more strictly.
Understandably, many residents worry about how they can meet their basic needs while observing this important advice. Here are two organisations worth contacting if additional support is needed.
