In Leicester the public response to the lockdown of the economy is being met with a surge in support for community volunteering. The Leicester Covid-19 Mutual Aid group has quickly been established in the city, with the aim of helping ans coordinating mutual support for vulnerable or isolating people at a street and neighbourhood level. I spoke with Rose Cattermole, who is one of the local volunteer coordinators of Mutual Aid in the city, about the challenges of getting the right support, and the kind of things that volunteers might be able to offer.
