+++ CONGRATULATIONS TO OUR FINAL ASHFORD APPLAUSE CHAMPION +++

When lockdown began, John Howell formed a volunteer group called Community Care Ashford. The group supports vulnerable and elderly residents by helping them get access to medicine and food supplies.

Never underestimate your ability to make a positive difference to someone’s day. A huge shout-out to our Ashford Volunteers who are giving their time to save and support the lives of others. 👏👏

@DamianGreen @BorisJohnson Can you change the rules on individuals applying for an enhanced DBS check for themselves. We have a lot of volunteers we can't use because of no DBS.

@sainsburys @Tesco @IcelandFoods @asda @LidlGB @AldiUK Can our volunteers please have permission to pick up all they need for those we are helping? Some of them are having to do several supermarket trips.

@sainsburys Thanks, these are people who can't get out, so we shop for them. Some of us have to also shop for our own elderly relatives.
