Advice for Volunteers and indeed everyone

When out and about in these current conditions, please be extra careful whether on foot or driving and adhere to advice, especially if you are either not comfortable or confident with getting about in snow and ice. Going into or being taken into A & E is never a pleasant experience and even more so at the moment. Take care
