​Coronavirus Self-Isolation Buddy Scheme
Government guidance to prevent the spread of coronavirus means that many will need to self-isolate and socially distance themselves for a considerable time.
It is important that we all follow guidance to protect both ourselves and others.
Health service resources are limited (especially ventilators and staff) so it is important that spread of the virus is kept to levels the health service can fully manage and to limit the suffering it causes.
Self-isolation may cause difficulty for some. Those living alone could feel lonely and even if you are not alone, perhaps all the household need to self-isolate so obtaining food, paracetamol etc. is a problem.
​We are setting up a buddy system to help with this.
A buddy would be someone who you can phone either for practical help (going to the shops for you) or just for a chat.
Deliveries would need to be left at your door as the buddy could not come in but would have your phone number to tell you the delivery is outside.
Please think now about how you would cope if self-isolating. You may have a nearby relative but they may be in isolation when you call them so I would recommend you have two people you could call for support.
​Would you like a buddy from the church community whom you could call for support either practical or a chat?
If so contact me – Sue Wells 0151 632 0539 / 07742 996985 
smwells1959@gmail.com and I will pair you up with a volunteer buddy.
​Also if you are below 70 and willing to be a buddy to support others as above please get in touch with me . I am sure in the weeks/months ahead there will be those who need our help. We need to pull together in this difficult time.
