Please be aware of scams operating on the doorstep, online and by phone in the current crisis. Criminals will not hesitate to take advantage at a time when people are anxious and desperate. Info here: friendsagainstscams.org.uk/ #ScamAware #ScamAlert

If you know of any shops & businesses that are still open & providing a vital service (eg, home delivery) in #Prescot, #Whiston & #Rainhill, please reply with details. Once confirmed I'll try to post a definitive list.
