Write a commentThe Southern Responders Group are reminding the public to support vulnerable and elderly neighbours, family and friends during this recent wintry spell.
Harsh weather conditions have seen many homes isolated and some residents cut off from their normal support network.
South Responders Group spokesperson, Superintendent Jason Murphy, explained: "The recent stormy weather has seen some residents in rural locations isolated due to flooding and snow falls. Local emergency services and utility companies are working around the clock to reach those worst affected.
"We are asking for the help of local communities to reach the more vulnerable and ensure they are safe. Please take the time to call with your neighbours and speak with them. If you have concerns about any resident in your neighbourhood please contact the relevant agency for advice, guidance and support."
