My family is missing each other like mad. I can’t see my grandson or my daughter because we don’t live in the same house. My dad has a heart condition and asthma and he’s 75.
Mum is 73 so they’re both in that vulnerable age bracket. We’re all in lockdown and self-isolating, but what everybody is doing to pull together is incredible.There is a real sense of community spirit and everybody wanting to be there for everybody else.
A lot of parents from Polly’s school are in group chats, checking on each other, and the same is happening with my former Coronation Street co-stars.
We’re updating each other with information and trying to lift the mood. My Scott, his family and my family have all downloaded the Houseparty app so we can be on video.
