Man on phone
PEOPLE shielding from coronavirus have been reminded that there is a dedicated phone line offering support to those at high risk.
More than 20,702 vulnerable people in Oxfordshire received a letter generated by GP surgeries, NHS records and health sources to identify them as high risk, advising them to stay home until 30 June.
Oxfordshire County Council set up the special phone line offering support and advice by the Social and Health Care Customer Service team to answer questions.
Callers can seek help by calling 01865 897820. Those in Oxford can also call 01865 249811.
