Small hamlet of Sandale in North Cumbria certainly showed its appreciation.

Holding a full Parish Council ‘virtual’ meeting early next month and will be interested to see how many parishioners join.

Most of my street were out tonight clapping- it was nice to see people and wave and feel heartened. I clapped extra hard for my brother, working on a ward full of virus patients.

How this has made us all think, and remember our priorities.
