This week’s news looks at the acts of kindness people have been showing to each other as we all try to stem the outbreak of the coronavirus.
A woman called Becky Wass, from Falmouth in Cornwall, has designed a postcard that people can give to neighbours who are staying at home because of Covid-19. The UK Government has asked people who show symptoms, and anybody living with them, to stay at home for up to 14 days, to limit the spread of the virus.
On the postcard, people can write their contact information and offer to pick up shopping or run errands for people stuck indoors.
On the weekend of 14-15 March, football clubs across the UK donated the food that they had prepared for match days to charity. This was after the Premier League and the English Football League (EFL) announced on 13 March all games were stopped until at least 4 April.
