Support families of Shielders to also Shield to protect their loved ones.

Over 2million people have been told to shield across the U.K. However official guidelines state that parents/carers and siblings can still go to work or school - as long as they distance within the household.

For many families this is impossible due to the care needs of their loved one - dressing, bathing, feeding etc. Meaning they’re constantly putting their loved one at risk. As well as this, parents can not shield if they’re caring for children who are going to school, as well as their vulnerable child or if they are vulnerable themselves.

Unfortunately due to government guidelines, many hospitals are unable to support families in their need to shield due to not being able to divert from said guidelines.
