Welfare call to 73 year old Mrs R to see how she is coping with being in isolation. Mrs R really enjoys a natter whilst she knits. We struck up a challenge to help with the boredom to knit as many baby cannula sleeves for the local baby unit as possible whilst she's isolated. Mrs R thought this was a great idea and welcomed the challenge of doing something positive in these challenging times.
