Due to the increasing prevalence of Covid-19 in the community, the increased number of Covid-19 ward outbreaks and the numbers of staff absent with Covid-19, we are asking all hospital staff and visitors to wear masks in clinical areas, with immediate effect.

It's time for our Monday spotlight...this week the focus is on @VforWB who support volunteers into a wide range of volunteering opportunities across the county. We are always keen to hear from people interested in how they can help out their local community, please get in touch!

Monmouthshire now has the lowest #COVID19 rate on mainland Britain.
Just 2 cases have been reported in the last 7 days.
The only other places to have lower rates across the UK are the Scottish Isles. – at Cardiff, Wales

On COVID today in M’shire we see 29 cases and our rate per 100,000 holds steady at just above 300. It’s easy to normalise this number & be pleased it’s lower than other places but that would be WRONG. We are not in a good place.
We’ll be making some school announcements later on

Today we see 7 new COVID cases in @MonmouthshireCC (a spike for us whilst low for most others). Llanelly Hill, Clydach, Gilwern, Llanfoist, Abergavenny continues to be where the most cases fall. Still well below a level of ‘lockdown concern’ but evidence of need for vigilance 1/2

Doing good does you good. Researchers at Harvard University have found that volunteering simultaneously enhances health and society. So get out there and do it - not only for others but for yourself!

Fun wordy fact of the day for kids: the first freelancers were knights who weren’t attached to any single lord and master, and so were *free* to use their *lances*, or weapons, for anyone who paid them. #homeschooling

We can all play a part in tackling #loneliness and improving our sense of #community.
91% of us think that small moments of connection, like saying hello on the bus, or smiling at someone in the street, can make a difference to someone who's feeling lonely.
