World / London model moves into care home to help residents during COVID-19

London: Harriett Rose, who is signed to top London agency Select, told on her Instagram page how she is working at the unnamed care home.

The blonde model, who has a huge portfolio and has featured in cool black and white magazine spreads, added that none of the people under her care had died.

Tagging the home as being in Herne Bay, Kent, she said yesterday: "One month ago I moved into a care home that I’ve recently started working at, for a one month lockdown period in order to ensure the safety of the residents during a peak of the covid-19 pandemic.

"To say it’s been tough would be an understatement!

"But with great pleasure I can say that we have been so lucky to have not lost any resident or member of staff OR contracted ANY cases of the coronavirus during this period.

"The quite literal blood sweat and tears, hundreds of hours on minimal sleep and not giving up, were all worth it!

"We are all SO blessed and we feel so proud of our huge achievement.

"We send all our love to all the other care homes and care workers who are continuing to do an amazing job!"

Harriett added: "Stay home! Keep to social distancing and WASH YOUR HANDS. Together we will get through this! Stay smiling and stay positive."

Her inspirational post was greeted with joy from her 5,500 followers.

One man said: That’s awesome stuff, keep it up."

Another added: "Well done Harriett, you're doing amazing."

She revealed she was working in the home as government ministers tried to carve a path out of the strict lockdown and to a “new normal”.

But the ease in restrictions are not expected to be introduced for several weeks as the government sticks to trying to drive down Covid rates as low as possible.

Boris Johnson’s official spokesman confirmed Downing Street is looking at loosening restrictions to let Brits enjoy the outdoors.

He said: “We’re looking at a range of possible easements of social distancing measures."
