Local ARP officials are doing all in their power to secure a consignment of babies' respirators.

They are expected at any time, but have not arrived yet.

The moment they are ready for distribution a notice will appear in the Express & Star, but they will not be distributed until there are sufficient to cover all ages up to five.

In the meantime mother are asked to be patient and wait for the announcement. Officials at the ARP depot can do nothing for you yet.
