Elderly time
Some shops give the elderly priority hours, but wondered it that could be go further and be reinforced with other measures.
Say for 2 hours, on day one day a week, only the elderly are allowed to move around (excluding essential worker travels). Allow them to meet a friend outdoors. Or for some, indoors for a tea and a biscuit together, particular those living on there own who don't have family supporting them, I'm sure there would be plenty volunteers to help at the moment, and it could maybe be a a wee lifeline for some coffee shops. Keep seating with apart, but allow some chat. Provision them with some simple face masks, maybe some vit D supplements, nutrition and technology advice.
Why the contribution is important
I remember how down my late father got when not able to go out and meet up with friends when bad winter weather set in, and that was just for a week or so. A lot of them don't know how to use technology to make things easier just now. The elderly will likely have shorter lives still to live so it's harder for them to look in the future We can't just shut them away and allow them no life at all.
