Guide to shops and services in Richmond during coronavirus outbreak

A Richmond resident has put together a comprehensive guide of shops and services available in the Richmond area during the coronavirus outbreak.

Bev Newton, a volunteer with St Mary’s Church, in Richmond, put together the guide to help the elderly and vulnerable.

She said she hoped the message was getting out that there were businesses and services available for those who were self-isolating.

She added: “We also wanted to let people know that meals were being delivered to those who needed it in Richmond.

“If people could print it out and give it to one elderly neighbour that would be a great help.”
