Falling Through The Cracks

Liberating Lockdown

No there is no doubt in my mind that lockdown has been tremendously hard for most people. When we initially went into lockdown back in March 2019 most of us probably believed that it would have lasted for a few weeks, maybe a month at best. The majority of us would have coped with the…
