And been called out into action.

I'm signed up for medicines and equipment transport but no call-in yet, 250 hours 'on duty' nearly clocked up. Perhaps all is hunky dory here in deepest Cornwall.....there's quite a lot of responders around me, about 7 in each of the two villages/town on me - it's quite interesting to see who is on, the App showing this information , if released.

So, any stories from other ABers?

Similar story here, I volunteered with the Local Authority over two weeks ago and have yet to be assigned to anything.
The tone of the email I got seemed to suggest they had more volunteers than jobs to go round.

shoota, I think that is indeed the case - better that they do have an excess, I guess. I was wondering whether to apply to become a covid tester for the public at large but no idea where to find any application forms - I see the Uni of Oxford is looking for 5000 people to test the new vaccine - that carries some risk I suppose and probably will be done near the Dreaming Spires....
I think they have more than enough volunteers plus there are other community groups providing services. I was going to go for the Nightingale but it's 50 hours per week and I can't commit to that. I'm waiting to hear about something else in the pipeline but it hasn't come to my area yet.
My niece is a bank nurse and she hasn't been able to book any shifts.

My local village has put on an amazing community support group - however, we had one tragic accident in a 94 year old coming out in a brand new car (a Polo)..after visiting the newsagent and Jamal thought the man was going to clobber the back of his new van, he went down the main street (Lemon Hill), lost control and ploughed into the shopping line outside the village shop. 3 injured but one woman, aged 63, had to be air-lifted to Plymouth, where she lost both her legs..... What he was doing out is a good question, given the support that there is plus two local shops providing a delivery service to the vulnerable.
