Clap For Carers

Postby Ally » 26 Mar 2020, 18:23

I'm sure you'll all be out clapping for the wonderful caring doctors, nurses and all health staff.

We've been doing this for 12 nights now. 8pm every night and it is so moving.

God bless everyone who is doing something to help in this most awful of times. xxxxx

A strange moment. Neighbours out clapping, just clapping - no whooping, cheering, screaming, shouting - just clapping. Very dignified. Then at the end someone let a huge firework off which topped it off so well.

As an NHS worker albeit a smaller cog, I am still grateful for the claps and also as someone who is fully dependant on carers for Luke, for them too

Thank you for doing it

Apparently going to be done every Thursday now at 8pm - lovely. We had a number of households join whilst in their homes, you could hear the whoops etc.. but it would have been nice to have more people outside their gates and be part of a community. But still - a number of us did and it was very emotional and heartwarming x

the only thing that worries me with it, is when you saw people out in some areas, they were in groups clapping not 2 metres apart
