Every Saturday since the lockdown kicked in, Knox Green residents have been standing outside their homes for a social distancing boogie.

After meeting one another (from a two metre distance) and chatting on their group Whatsapp, they have arranged events like a group yoga session and are even decorating their street for VE day this Friday.

She said: "I just love the community spirit that we have got here in Knox Green. We have all met neighbours that we didn’t previously know, and everyone is being so kind, generous and helpful.

"I am glad that there is some good to come out of this awful pandemic. My hope is that our new, caring community will continue to be a wonderful place to live long after lockdown is over."

"Then we decided, as it was dry and sunny to have a bit more fun. There are rarely any cars in that part of the cul de sac and we made sure that we were all sitting three metres apart. Some people opted to stay standing and danced from the pavement.
