Al Parsons, who has been co-ordinating the coronavirus response, said: “We’d like to say thanks to Waitrose and Tesco, they have been giving us unbought flowers and we’ve been sending them to people who are vulnerable.

“Then we started asking for nominations of key workers. We had a really emotive response and we’ve given out hundreds already. We just want more nominations now.
