Ramsey residents will be given signs to put in their windows - to let people know if they're okay or need help.

It comes following Ramsey Town Commissioners announcing they'll be delivering a letter to all local households - which will include these signs.

The letter will include an update on services Commissioners provide and some useful contact information during current COVID-19 pandemic.

Commissioners say they're doing so as they know there are many in the community who do not have the internet.
