NHS Covid-19 Vaccination Programme
As the NHS Covid-19 Vaccination programme is under way, I thought I would take this opportunity to provide details of some safe, trusted websites where you can obtain up to date information about the vaccines and the roll out programme nationally as well as information local to us in Chelmsford, Essex.
The work that has been carried out by scientists in developing the vaccines, as well as the NHS and huge army of volunteers who are helping with the vaccine rollout, is really something to be proud of and which can give us hope for the future. If you or anyone you know has questions and wants to access trusted information, please feel free to look through the sites I have shared below.

Safety At Home; Lockdown in Chelmsford
During these difficult times, those of us who are not key workers will be at home and trying to find things to do to occupy our time.

The change in routine can cause aches, pains or injuries and create problems that we just don't want at this already difficult time. Here are some thoughts of how we can keep safe at home.
Dog Walking Safety During Covid-19
Covid-19 has resulted in significant changes in normal routine for most of us. Those of us with dogs are making changes to our dog walking routine to accommodate the government guidelines to stay near home avoiding driving to our usual dog walking locations as much as possible, and that can present some challenges. It’s great to get outside and share our daily exercise with our furry friends, but as many of us find ourselves walking our dogs on their leads more than we are used to, we need to be careful we don’t end up injuring ourselves.
Lockdown in Chelmsford, Essex
Covid-19 lockdown in Chelmsford, Essex has changed our lives in so many ways. The situation is of course also affecting the whole country and most of the world.
