Adopt a Healthcare Worker with Chris Nicholas

Mark catches up with Chris Nicholas, founder of the Adopt a Healthcare Worker in Western Australia which has captured the attention of over 55K volunteers via their Facebook group.  Chris talks us through the purpose of the page, from providing meals to hosting medics in empty Air BnBs. Chris gives his advice for those wanting to kick-start initiatives of their own, as well as how to juggle helping out with the need to comply with government restrictions. Chris also discusses his personal experience of isolation as he displays symptoms of COVID and coping with the impact it’s had on family life.  Listen, watch, share and let us know your thoughts!    Adopt a Healthcare Worker Western Australia > https://bit.ly/3bcDuNS Adopt a Healthcare Worker UK and Ireland > https://bit.ly/3b70Ap3
