Life in Lockdown

             

           

Lock down Effects on Humans:

People are going to be isolated right now and feeling really alone we'd be talking about 1.2 billion pounds worth of loss it's merely about people coming together at a

time like this you don't rise how much family means to you until you know with them the spring of 2020 won't be remembered for their glorious weather in the UK it'll be

Remembered for a nation in lockdown all over the UK people are coping with a fundamental change to their daily lives adapting in difficult times to this new normal

has been challenging for us all a sense of isolation even when going out for essentials or a daily walk we've been reporting from around the UK on how the countries.

Cornwall:
 

Dealing with life in lockdown first let's take you to Cornwall where our West of England correspondent Dan Whitehead has this report new land harbor at the southern

tip of corn Lou these trawlers usually land fish that ends up in the world's finest restaurants but no more as soon as the pandemic reached a point where borders were

being closed through the fishing industry that was stopped from that moment Jeremy Hosken is a third-generation fisherman he should be out catching lobster and crab as

little boats were just started in our season we've just been through a really poor winter we haven't learnt very much four five or six months we're just about to begin what we

would normally expect do and obviously this pandemic has come right at that moment so we've gone a long period of time with the with no income and now we've got

another period that we really don't know where the incomes going to come from usually this is one of the UK's busiest fishing ports but it's dead there are very few

boats operational and without the restaurants and the associated trade this industry is becoming increasingly impossible but there is a glimmer of hope is pandemic has

actually created a new opportunity for Cornwall's fishermen well this is turret from newly market this morning kasia's payne says the virus stopped his business overnight he needed to act quickly the Cornish fish produces organization launched fish to your door and the orders just keep on coming well we get in families audio and direct to the house.

Hotels in Lockdown:

People are starting to cooking again you know and those back to basics basically what we was doing years ago you know get rid of all these ready meals its proper home

food good wholesome food fresh straight from the sea next day within 24 hours it's at your house while some can adapt others have been forced to close Padstow on the

north coast this holiday whether it should be packed it looks and sounds like never before right across Cornwall the Sun is out but the county is deserted what would the

part normally be like full of joy full of children running around having a great time shows characters different life the camel Creek Adventure Park has furloughed around

130 staff usually they've been looking after 3,000 visitors a day there is no one playing there is no laughter there are no memories being made it is eerie isn't it have

you ever seen it like this no of course not not even during the winter not even during the refurbishing time we would have staff members everywhere painting brushing

cleaning getting the park ready so it's it's very strange it feels abandoned and it's like this at attractions across the county all they could do is prepare and hope it's really is

about making sure we got a plan a and a plan B and Plan C for any eventuality as to when the park will be reopened and last when the world's will start to to be relaxed it's

real isn't it is Aurilia yeah it is daunting at this time of year tourism would see Cornwall's population increase by around a third that this virus shut the industry down

all agree the lockdown is essential there is a greater fear tourists must return for July and August the peak months and there's a stark warning if they can't for the worst-case scenario which we hope will never happen this went through to August.

 

Business loss Because of Covid-19:

We’ve been talking about 1.2 billion pounds worth of loss and that will be the end for some it was according to our research at the end of 80 percent of the businesses there

should be thousands of holidaymakers here right now enjoying this site but it's locked down it is empty there is nobody here this is the biggest test for Cornwall's tourism

sector but even in this adversity sites like this and doing what they can to help those on the front line Hendra Holiday Park in Newquay is making its caravans available to

key workers who need to isolate holiday let's across the county are being offered up Hannah Dobson is a care worker that calls only major hospital both her parents a

classed as vulnerable and it's just 18 she decided to move out of home for the first time she was given a holiday cabin by a local family I've been completely used to just

being all like mom and dad can do my washing and things like that and not having to

go like from having it one week and then the next week completely you are on your own now I'm kind of like learning with it now but yeah it's I'm so grateful for the

accommodation that I've been given like so so grateful that I'm able to still work and my parents are safe as well the coronavirus has left Cornwall empty and silent for

 many all they can do is wait the tourists will return the beaches will be full again but the fear is it could be too late for some Dan Whitehead reporting there well the Blitz

spirit championed by the wartime generation during this pandemic is felt though more strongly than in Coventry a city that's no stranger to crisis our correspondent Mark

Stone reports on the sense of help and hope in the Midlands in the heart of Britain there is a place where they know a thing or two about resilience about community

 spirit one quote from the picking show it's 9:00 in the morning on who knows what day four the volunteers of this Food Bank each seems to roll into the other at the

moment we're in Coventry in a warehouse where two organizations have come together the Trussell Trust is used to getting food out to those who can't afford it but

now as well they must get it to those two vulnerable to leave their homes the donations are sorted boxed loaded and away the destination is across the city the good

neighbors project is the initiative of an organization called simply hope the volunteers here are in full swing they've been in overdrive since the lockdown began what's

driven you to come down here and help out The Voice got me involved so I thought why not well give more time or I'll give my tamil to help people with a system they

call hub-and-spoke they fan out into the city a lot of parcels to be delivered today and can I call you back I'm just dropping off some food at the moment this is Jackie on her

way to deliver a food parcel to a man called Ali to everybody around the country or who is watching this thanks ever so much for helping people like myself and other

Vulnerable people during this difficult time up the road the police are out what a sign of these corona times this is nada Raza has a wife and three children to support in

Lockdown at home and he has three employees to support at his shop which must remain open because he has a community to provide for and a living to make these are

the multi-layered conundrums of this challenging time then maybe next week we end up than this one we disclose the old cathedral stands here as a memorial of the Blitz

Destroyed on one night of bombing in 1940 they thought it would break the spirit of the city instead the opposite happened out of this came hope it stands still as a

reminder of survival and of renewal linking those past struggles with today is that perhaps somehow not quite the appropriate comparison well the community spirit and

the determination which rose from here back then is without question here again today in abundance the human desire for company for being together for supporting each

other for being supported by others is so deep and so powerful that it's finding a way of overcoming the distance which has been enforced upon us by this virus I think in

wartime you had the same sort of experience we're having today a deep desire for connectedness for togetherness a spirit of help I would put it realizing in the city and

also a spirit of hope on the road south Chris Merrett is keeping food shops in the smaller town stocked delivery drivers have always been key it's just that now they are

recognized we drive past now we get the thumbs up from people we get people Pippin you know so you know it's a privilege Chris's route takes him through a place where

lock downs and pandemics have been part of history Stratford-upon-Avon Shakespeare’s birthplace quiet and shut today just like it was 500 years ago because

an outbreak of the plague began here in this in the first victim Oliver Gunn died inside

his death certificate carries the words here begins the plague it's in a registry office that today is only open for people to register the dead on the edge of the town at the

Shakespeare Hospice Jenna Norris is one of a team of palliative care nurses comforting those at the end of their life.

Conclusion:

We appreciate to our paramedical staff and police officers and those who are serving us in this pandemic we are highly appreciate their moral and we pray for them to be safe and healthy so they serve more to us and be polite with their country and also with their family.
