STAY POSITIVE

Blairfolk, it’s a crazy, unprecedented time that is affecting the globe but also those around you … your neighbours. No-one really knows what anyone else is going through or feeling at this time and we all have a duty to support this community. Please let’s all make an incredible effort, especially now, but also going forward to STAY POSITIVE:

• If posting, post something positive;
• Call a neighbour to find out how they’re doing;
• Refrain from responding with negativity;
• Spend this time wisely;
• Do your part to build people up and encourage them.
