Having had a few days "off duty" from NHS responders to focus on my MSc I felt a bit less busy and ready to set my phone to receive alerts. About a few hours later I received an alert to call Mrs R, a women I have called twice previously. We had a lovely chat and I was glad to hear that tomorrow she'll be reunited with her daughter in law has been self isolating for two weeks (after travelling from Australia).

We then briefly discussed the volunteer responder service and she said her granddaughter has also been a responder. Her granddaughter had spoken to an older man who was feeling lonely wanting to start fishing but wasn't sure he'd remember how to fish. Luckily she knows someone who goes fishes and they're going to arrange a fishing trip once possible with socially distancing/shielding rules.

After about 40 minutes Mrs R said how much she'd enjoyed the call and I said it had flown by.
