COVID-19
The only thing more astonishing then the scale of the COVID-19 outbreak is the response from our community. At this time of great national and local need our neighbours are responding with extraordinary generosity and kindness in large numbers.
The LCF will act to network and connect the many people and groups that have come forward with offers of help and assistance. There’s no doubt that information is fluid, changing daily, some information may be conflicting.
DO YOU KNOW OF ANYONE IN SELF-ISOLATION NEEDING HELP?
Anyone who shows symptoms must stay at home and therefore cannot go to shops contact LIMEHOUSE AID for help.
You can get them help by either texting / calling 020 3322 7452 or emailing LimehouseAid@gmail.com.
