Popular Post Hoddie 3,063 Posted March 28, 2020 Popular Post Report Share Posted March 28, 2020 There's lots of help and support out there but it's not available for everyone, or can be difficult for some to access right now. Maybe you just need pointing in the right direction or need a chat. Not everyone has a support network that is local. Halifax Town supporters are a community. We can do our bit to look after each other in these strange times. Need help? If you need anything, from a bog roll to help with accessing benefits, leave a brief message in this thread and maybe someone can come up trumps. Keep your post brief and personal details to a minimum - something like "need help Ovenden" or "self-isolating in Exley, some fresh bread and milk would be great". Once you no longer need any help, you can edit your post to say so (or just remove your message). Able to help? If you're possibly in a position to help out, send the user a private message to make arrangements. Don't be judgemental and please be discrete, now and in the future. Take sensible precautions Follow the official guidelines - keep your distance, wear gloves if possible (especially if you're shopping for someone else), don't shake hands, etc. Don't give anyone your bank details unless you trust them (PayPal is a good alternative). Use common sense and stay safe. 19 4 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Pliny Harris 4,119 Posted March 28, 2020 Report Share Posted March 28, 2020 Make sure everyone is part of a local mutual aid or support group too. They’ve been springing up all across the country. There’s the opportunity to have your number in a groupchat with your neighbourhood, either when you’re in need or can offer help/skills yourself. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
vinnyweknuts 3,104 Posted March 28, 2020 Report Share Posted March 28, 2020 I am unsure whether we'll see major food shortages as even hardest hit areas such as Italy are ok after the initial panic mode. Just a top tip if anyone needs urgent supplies, wholesalers that supply pubs, restaurants and hotels are brimming with food and are now targeting retail private customers. I have current contacts in Blackpool/Fylde (DJ- I can source biscuits!) but not in Yorkshire although situation will be similar Quote Link to post Share on other sites

After fruit shorties I'd say lotus are the best biscuits. Even available as a spread in some supermarkets. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

townmad 921 Posted March 29, 2020 Report Share Posted March 29, 2020 Always got one after a tea or coffee in Majorca, they now have silly little tiny buns now. I'd settle now for being able to go and eat one of the buns again this summer. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
