The government recently issued new advice for people who are more at risk from coronavirus to say that you are no longer advised to shield.

Access support to self-isolate
Self-isolating is important because it will prevent you from passing it on to other people and keep those around you safe. If you need help to self-isolate, whether it be accessing food or medicine, support with your job and work needs, or help with your children’s education and caring responsibilities, please call us on 020 7974 4444 (option 9).
