We are being swamped with offers of help from members of the public.
Our current advice on our dedicated webpage
outlines how people can help just now by being a good neighbour, and how they can do this safely.
We are also sharing this information with the various online groups which have formed over the past week.
The challenge going forward will be identifying how to best engage these willing people with organisations who need help. There are obviously masses of issues to consider.
Most volunteer programmes and opportunities in the city have already changed or have been suspended, and will continue to change over the coming days and weeks.
Please think of ways that people will be able to help you in the weeks and months ahead. We will contact you all this week about how we can take this forward.
Thank you,
