At the end of July those self-isolating (over 70’s and those with health conditions) can start to see people in groups of 6, initially this is outside only. People can also be part of a bubble with one other family group going into their house and visa versa. At least it’s a step forward for those who have been missing their family or friends. I’m sure it won’t be too much longer that people will be allowed 1 visitor inside as long as distancing is maintained. We will have to wait for that announcement.
Further easing of lock down measures

I originally trained as a SEN(M), and worked in that sector caring for the elderly for around 9 years. After this I changed pathways and moved to administration work, being employed in both the NHS and private sectors at various stages of my career. Between 2002 to June 2017 I worked in a Fertility Clinic as Clinic Director, and then Quality lead providing a patient centered service. This was a key element of my job, and I enjoyed listening to patients and improving standards of service through patient feedback and audit. It was through doing voluntary work though that I realized I wanted to work alongside people more directly again and offer them support in the community by forming a companionship service. I set this up in 2017 and have now established a befriending and support service for people at home that need help to remain independent. View all posts by Treasured Time
