Living La Vida Lockdown

On my daily bike ride I am compiling a photographic  archive of Londoners under lockdown, as a tribute to people's upbeat spirit in these uncertain times. Many of the participants have been the unsung heroes, the people who give of their time and talents to help others. If you know of someone that would fit this description, or other folk with interesting tales to tell, please email me with your suggestions: nickcornwall@mac.com. Many thanks, Nick. (Apologies, I couldn't figure out how to add a photo to this post!)This is the link to the collection: https://www.nickcornwall.com/#/living-la-vida-lockdown/

Hi Nick.  Great set of photos, you certainly get around. It's not possible to upload images to this relic of a forum but you can on the updated version https://new.putneysw15.com/#forum.  I wouldn't think the platform would support bulk picture uploads so the link to your hosting site is better.

Thank you Nick, such a lovely record of the lockdown times, with many smiling faces.  I really enjoyed looking at the photographs!

Not exactly a person but run by many volunteers, The Platt, Regenerate Rise.  This group has truly been a lifeline to all its members, from shopping to providing hot meals daily etc.  I have nothing but praise for them.  The thought and logistics that must have gone into this project fills me with admiration.  Everyone I know, on the receiving end, and I know some personally, really really appreciates seeing the volunteers daily and are so very grateful

Thanks, Nick. Great collection of pictures. A good pictorial story of London - its variety and diversity.
