Stay at home doesn't mean you need to disconnect from your friends and loved ones. Here's some tips on how to stay in touch digitally:

Make plans to video chat with people or groups you'd normally see in person.

• You can also arrange phone calls or send instant messages or texts.
• If you're worried that you might run out of stuff to talk about, make a plan with someone to watch a show or read a book separately so that you can discuss it when you contact each other.
• Think of other ways to keep in contact with people if meeting in person is not possible. For example, you could check your phone numbers are up to date, or that you have current email addresses for friends you've not seen for a while.
