Care providers ‘will be supported’ - Chief Minister

Care providers - whether that be for the elderly or children will be supported throughout the lockdown.

That’s according to Chief Ministwr Howard Quayle who spoke in today’s press conference.

He reiterated support applies to those shopping for others, and offering supportive childcare.

For example if children are normally cared for by someone from another house while a parent is working, this can still continue.
 

Separated parents can also continue to share childcare.

Care for the elderly can be continued by family, friends or volunteers, but people should take additional precautions to keep people safe.
