Coronavirus Diaries: Kent needs a hotline for elderly people to call and chat

Written by Liela Ibrahim, of Kent

The reason I have written this diary entry is that I am hoping that in our area we can have a hotline where the elderly can chat and have a conversation with people.

I would love to do this. To be isolated is a very hard situation for anyone, especially for those who don't have family members with them.

Like everybody else, shopping has been the hardest. I decided not to panic buy, I have just been to the corner shop everyday.

I just don't see why people panic buy - it's not fair to the elderly.

If you're in Kent and you need to talk to someone, Liela would love to hear from you - 07418036915
