A woman who was accused of breaking lockdown rules while helping a vulnerable friend has shared her thoughts on “how not to be too judgemental”.
Sarah Crosland was dropping shopping off for a vulnerable person in Leeds who is unable to leave the house because of coronavirus.
Sarah said she picked up her friend’s shopping while she was doing her own shop and then drove to where her friend lives.
She parked her car up on the road in Morley and delivered the shopping to her friend’s house.
When she returned to her car she found an angry note had been posted through her window, reports Leeds Live.
The passive aggressive message suggested she had broken lockdown rules and informed Sarah that her number plate had been written down.
'I have recorded your registration number. You have no business being in this street. You have broken the regulation lockdown,’ the note read.
Shocked by what she was reading, Sarah took to social media to share her thoughts on people who are too quick to judge.
"Hi, Leeds folk,” she wrote.
“This is a public service announcement on quarantine rules and how not to be judgemental.
"I dropped some shopping off for someone vulnerable. I did their shopping alongside my own weekly shop. I parked my car near their house. My window was slightly open due to it being warm.
"When I got back in my car, I found this passive-aggressive note on my seat."
The government has asked everyone to adhere to lockdown rules to further prevent the spread of the virus, which has already claimed 10,000 lives.
These rules do allow people to leave their homes to buy or collect essentials, in medical emergencies, to go to work if they cannot work from home and for exercise once a day.
Within this you are allowed to pick up essentials for others as there are many elderly and vulnerable people who have been contacted to say they shouldn’t be leaving the house at all.
