Diana sent this rainbow of colour which made her smile when taking her walk down the Radley Road yesterday.

Julian updated me on the Abingdon Corona Virus response group to be found on Facebook. Here are some of the the actions put in place:
* An emergency response team for the council.
* A cross-town team taking on deliveries for the co-op and the foodbank, plus providing ‘overflow’ capacity for ‘regular’ requests
* They have 3 area reps and 29 neighbourhood coordinators and 500 active volunteers
* They postcarded nearly 17,000 houses
* They are working with AbiMeds

There are now got 550 hi-viz jackets for all Street Coordinators to wear, so that they are instantly recognisable as being part of the group. Abingdon-on-Thames Town Council funded those and also 20 litres of hand sanitizer and 190 small bottles. S.E. Workwear helped supply the jackets.

Julian says ‘All of this is a great town effort, from people, many of who have never met, who are embracing their community and helping out anyone who is vulnerable in these challenging times.‘ He gives special mention to Sarah ‘Sez’ Anthony,  who has instigated and set up the group.

The thoughts for the day (top right) are not happening over the weekend. I did spot this bible verse on our walk today down Spring Road.
