A newly-established coronavirus national support helpline is asking volunteers and community groups in the north west to contact it.
Covid Community Response aims to brings communities together by collaborating with and supporting those most in need during the virus outbreak.
Members of the public seeking help can do so via text at 086 180 0256 or by phone call at 021 237 7809.
Groups already helping people are asked to register with the helpline, which is operated entirely by volunteers.
Communications and Marketing Manager Seamus O Fatharta has been telling Ocean FM News about the helpline.
