Every Thursday Brentwood Borough Council’s Town Hall is now lit blue to mark the NHS and #clapforourcarers weekly event.
It is heartening to hear the clapping, pan banging and hum of excitement across the Brentwood and Ongar constituency each Thursday at 8pm when neighbours appear at their doors to join in the weekly Clap for Carers. NHS staff, care workers, mergency services, delivery drivers, teachers, local government workers and supermarket staff are applauded in a tribute to the work they are doing to help all of us get through the strange times in which we are living.
Most of us have a very limited scope of outings at the moment, but I am pleased to share Brentwood Borough Council's picture of the newly opened Town Hall bathed in blue, as it will remain during the Covid-19 crisis.
