There's a lot of kind stuff going on in our town and covered by local social media. Every day individuals offer help and free surplus items such as nappies, Calpol etc. Businesses too gave stuff away as they closed down.
A man came round yesterday with a card offering help with shopping etc in an initiative supported by the council. He hadn't quite got all the messages himself yet as he was allowing his pre-school daughter to hand these over face to face. It takes time for it to become second nature.
What I still find odd is having to get prescriptions by queueing up among the sick. The few postal options, just as happened with home grocery deliveries, are now unavailable. Perversely I can still order Amazon tat for immediate delivery.
