ESSEX COMMUNITIES COME TOGETHER

WEBINARS SUPPORT ISOLATED DEMENTIA CARERS

Essex-based charity, Dementia Adventure, is offering free online support to the thousands of dementia carers and families across Essex who may feel isolated and unsupported during the coming weeks. The charity’s free dementia support sessions aim to provide practical hints and tips to help carers remain occupied and stay connected during isolation. Family, friends and neighbours can join online with experts from the charity from the comfort of their own home. During the interactive live webinars people will have the opportunity to speak to qualified dementia trainers and connect with others in a similar situation.

LONDON SOUTHEND AIRPORT DONATES CARE PACKAGES TO NHS

With NHS workers struggling to support COVID-19 patients and people in need of medical assistance, London Southend Airport (LSA) is offering care packages to these key staff, many of whom are unable to get to a supermarket or find items to get by. Staff at LSA have gathered essential items to give to NHS workers at Southend and Basildon hospitals as well as the ambulance base on Aviation Way.

Glyn Jones, CEO at London Southend Airport, said: ‘We have 75 care packages which will be delivered over the next few days to help as many NHS staff as possible. It is a time to pull together and support key workers on the frontline of the fight against COVID-19. I am proud that the airport is able to play a small role in providing that support.’
