From West End icons to Shakespeare classics...So what have we learned from our time in #Lockdown so far?
😁 We can exercise at home?
😁 We can quickly adapt to new technology. Zoom anyone? Tic Tok?
😁 Spending extended time with the family/housemates or alone is not to be feared?
😁 Reading books is a forgotten joy?
😁 We can make a day special for someone, even though we can't see them?
😁 There's a lot of stuff we don't need?
😁 We have time to help others?
Let us know what life in lockdown has meant for you, and what habits you will continue once all this is over!

It's World Health Day 2020! So let us show our deepest gratitude, to everyone who has ever been involved in keeping us at our healthiest best, at any point in our lives!😃❤️
At this difficult time, our thoughts go out foremost to those selfless individuals who are involved, in any capacity, in battling covid-19! We are so grateful!
But let's thank ourselves too! For any healthier choices we make! For all the times we exercised our bodies! And of course, right now, for all the times we are choosing not to go out, to protect ourselves and others and to save lives!
Thank you!

Whilst we are all aware that right now, it is difficult for any of us to live exactly as we would wish. For many, the isolation and loneliness at the moment can be truly crushing.😞
So as the days into lock-down extend, let's all do our best to keep in touch, show we care and stay connected.📞 A short contact can really make someone's entire day feel special!
And for those who are struggling to get heard, advocacy volunteers around the country have moved their support onto the telephone!☎️😁
This means that you can still access help and support, to help you make your own choices, as far as possible, in these difficult times!
