We have been informed some parents have received an email stating:
 
‘As schools will be closing, if you're entitled to free school meals, please send your bank details and we'll make sure you're supported’.
 
This is a scam email - do not respond, and delete immediately.

How low can these people get  :(

This looks good though.  250,000 NHS volunteers needed.

Don't know if mentioned already.

The NHS with the Army are to open a Field Hospital in London called NHS Nightingale Hospital, initially with 500 beds, with capacity to increase to 2,000 beds in each Ward.

Top firms working on Ventilators too.

There is a massive effort going on, thank you everyone involved.

Continue to follow Government Rules.

The spring flowers are out in their glory in my garden and as long as it stays fine I can do plenty of gardening.

KGarrad, plenty of positivity from you too, thank you.

Forgot to add - what really cheered me up was seeing the gorse coming into flower.
Reminds me of Spring 1994, when I arrived on the island!
A gorgeous vibrant golden yellow. ;D

This may make you smile. My niece took her 3 year old to the park, near their house to feed the ducks. They walked round, keeping well away from others. Then a jogger wearing a mask ran past them.  Jessica said, " Why is the dentist running round the park? "

My hospital has sent all our volunteers home as we are on lockdown.. As I imagine all hospitals are... I wonder if they will bring them back?
