I am still isolating I work in the hospitality industry and am conserned that my company will put forward for me to return even part time I'm high risk  which my manager knows about so hope I can have the option or not to refuse just for now anyway? I'm still worried as don't want contact with the public as not even had contact with my family and grandkids x

Hello everyone,

I thought I would check in and see how everyone is doing. emoticon cute

Are you worried about the rising COVID numbers? Are you planning to work from home again if you can or take time off work? Are you taking any additional measures to protect yourself?

I can not work from home, as I am a carer in a home, I am worried about the risks, but I am protecting myself as much as I can while I am at work
