I want to sing high praise for the unconditional help and support I received from Cllr.Aniket Patel for Buckurst Hill West and one of his administrators, Miss Georgeta Rosca, who worked in a nursing home in Buckhurst Hill during the Covid lockdown.
Being in the vulnerable category I had to self isolate. A leaflet through my door at the beginning of lockdown from Cllr Patel offering help, shopping, picking up prescriptions was very reassuring.
My main concern was my weekly shopping at Waitrose. I contacted Cllr Patel and he assured me, saying he would not let me down. He arranged for Miss Rosca to collect my shopping list weekly, and then she would carry out shopping on my behalf. She did not have to deliver groceries as I already had a shopping slot arranged.
Miss Rosca helped me all through the lockdown on a weekly basis, while Cllr Patel checked in now again to see how I was getting on.
I want to say thank you both for your unconditional help and support. Two very warm hearts indeed.
Angela Spain,
Buckhurst Hill
