Freecycle still working in Southwark despite current crisis

There are still new wanted and offer posts going up on Southwark Freecycle. Surely not appropriate at the moment?I've emailed to ask why and what their policy is regarding COVID19

Just received from Southwark Mod Team - Freecycle Southwark suspended

'To all members,

During this difficult time and following on from the government's advice The Southwark freecycle will temporarily stop posting any new offers/wanted ads. All live posts will be removed.

We thank you for your continued support and hope this will continue when things return to normal.

Please stay safe.

Kind regards

Southwark Moderating Team.'

Update from Southwark Freecycle this morning:

'We would like to thank you for your understanding and being such caring members of Southwark freecycle. In line with some of the other freecycle/recycle groups we have decided to reopen our group but for now we will only allow posts where social distancing can be observed. We are saddened by the amount of items going to landfill but more so by the huge number losing their lives to this awful virus. To you all we say be careful and observe SOCIAL DISTANCING at all times.

Thank you

Your Moderating Team.'
