Residents across Cumbria will have the chance to put their questions on the current Covid-19 situation to the county's most senior public health official.

Cumbria's director of public health, Colin Cox, will be holding a live question and answer session online this evening.

The session will be held on Cumbria County Council's Facebook page, between 7.30pm and 8.30pm.

The session will provide residents with an opportunity to hear the latest update on the ever-changing situation surrounding the coronavirus pandemic, and what they mean for Cumbria and its residents.

This evening's session will also provide an opportunity for residents to put any questions they have on coronavirus to Mr Cox.

As Cumbria's director of public health, it is Mr Cox's responsibility to help coordinate the county's multi-agency response to the pandemic, in partnership with the NHS, police and political leaders in the county.
