COVID-19 - Do you need help firing the Coronavirus outbreak?

Posted on: 16 Apr 2020

Derbyshire County Council are asking if you need help during the Coronavirus outbreak?

They can help you if you have no friends or family you can call on and:

  • you are self-isolating because you or a member of your household is at risk
  • you are struggling to meet your basic needs because of financial, social or health restrictions
  • you are pregnant
  • you have underlying health conditions
  • you are aged 70 or over.

They can help you with shopping, or fetching your prescription or finding someone to have a chat with.
