Useful Information Sources in Cornwall for COVID-19
Photo has no link to the post that follows but just seemed nice!
I am conscious there is much mis-information going around but that people need reliable places to get information.
Cornwall Council is going to step up it’s circulation of information and they have a dedicated page on their website with all sorts of links. The screenshot below shows the nature of that page and the link to it is below.

A safe way for those wanting to help connecting with those that need help is Volunteer Cornwall (link below) who are being supported and in Partnership with our local NHS. I am aware of many communities wanting to set up informal arrangements and 99% of those are well intentioned and wonderful. Trouble is that tiny minority of individuals who will exploit this situation and befriend and defraud our most vulnerable. So, for communities, I think acting collectively in streets, very small communities where you all know each other is fine, but I’m a little anxious about wider informal groupings introducing strangers to each other, without checks. STAY SAFE out there.

Finally, many community facilities are closing their doors – locally the Centre of Pendeen is shutting, our Miner’s Chapel and the Library is restricted although that may well change to closed soon.
