Hide AdHelen Davis, strategic lead at Active Notts said: “We are working with partners across Mansfield, Ashfield, Newark and Sherwood to support families that might need a little bit of help at the moment.
“Our partners in education, health and social care and the voluntary sector are telling us that some people living in the communities where higher health inequalities exist are at times, finding it harder to cope with lockdown.
“This is because of a number of reasons including, a lack of indoor space, limited outdoor space, often there are more people living in the household, underlying health problems, lower income, lack of IT and limited access to Wi-Fi.
“Our partnership approach will ensure resources are not duplicated and people are supported in the right way to get through lockdown.”
