Jessica's local lockdown portraits

Jessica Risden is raising money for St John Ambulance

Local lockdown portraits · 18 May 2020

During the COVID-19 outbreak, St John is actively supporting ambulance services, hospitals and communities to protect life and health through this worrying and uncertain period.

Story

During this unique time in our lives, I wanted to find a small way to support St John Ambulance and those of them working on the frontline in extremely difficult circumstances. 

SJA has been assisting nhs staff, as part of the COVID-19 response team. They are not only easing the strain but are also providing hundreds of ambulances, working in the ED and staffed the Nightingale hospital. 

Unfortunately, with events up and down the country being cancelled due to coronavirus, St John Ambulance are without a large source of their income. This income would usually be spent on medical resources, medications, ambulance maintenance and accommodation for volunteers to name a few. This is why i am hoping to support St John
Ambulance so that they can continue to support the NHS in one of their biggest deployments yet. 

I have been volunteering with this charity for a number of years and have worked with many truly inspiring people. St John plays a vital role in responding to the needs of our community. This has never been as necessary as it is today, due to this I thought I could capture a snapshot of the households within our community in lockdown from a safe distance. For a doorstep portrait please give a small donation in return if you can.
