The Government today addressed the issue of Domestic Violence and released this number for victims ; 0808 2000 247 (National Domestic Abuse Helpline) or call 999 if in immediate danger and press 55 if you can’t speak but need urgent help.
There is also the NSPCC ( National Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Children) Telephone 08088005000 or email [email protected], that can be contacted for help.
For those who can stay indoors comfortably for a few more weeks, have a garden and room in their house to exercise in, this is probably the best option to #StayHomeStaySafe.
This will create a safer and quieter environemt for those who desperately dataset need to have this daily 30 minutes of respite.
I watched Horizon on BBC 2 This week and recommend it as it explains why safe and protect ourselves, each other and the NHS. Please click on link below.
As a family we have decided to not walk out of the house if it wasn’t for food or work.. We have the benefit of technology to keep in touch with close ones and to keep ourselves entertained at home.
I strongly feel the need to protect our health workers and other key workers who have no choice but to leave their homes and families to go to work.
I am sure no health worker or key worker wants to be made a hero or a martyr. They all will fear for their safety and health, and the lives of their close ones.
Clapping the NHS is a good way of showing appreciation. However it isn’t going to ‘help the NHS’. Personal Protective Equipment, the public staying at home and thinking of each health worker as a human being is what will help the NHS.
