Welcome to the second newsletter providing you with an update of what has been taking place across Morecambe Bay to tackle the current coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic.
It’s a really fast moving situation which means we’re working in very different ways and facing very different challenges to those we were facing less than two months ago.
We want to pay tribute to all the teams of key workers across Morecambe Bay – without them, wherever they are working, our lives would not be able to continue.
We also want to pay tribute to the public who, by and large, have stayed safe, stayed home and protected our NHS.
We have continued to provide services in primary care, the community, our hospitals and across mental health services, and have made preparations to ensure that if things become more pressured we can continue to provide services for the people of Morecambe Bay. We’d also like to thank all our partners across the councils in south Cumbria and north Lancashire, the large firms and smaller businesses who have helped us, at whatever level.
Everyone has been so kind and generous and have really helped our efforts. Thank you all for your continued support.
