More door to door knocking encouraging people to get a coronavirus test at the mobile test sites that are moving around the city to track down the virus.

Another enjoyable morning for a cricket geek, touring the streets named after members of Leicestershire's 1975 County Championship winning squad. I even managed to visit Tolchard Close, named after Roger Tolchard who is now a colleague of mine on the National Umpires Panel with the ECB!

A great response from the community, the woman at the penultimate house we visited was already down at the test site having her test by the time we'd walked back. Great to see such an immediate impact to our volunteering!
