Annemarie Plas, the woman behind the original Clap for Carers last year, tweeted today that she would be bringing back the weekly 8pm applause to "lift spirits" among all of us during the third national lockdown in less than a year.
She tweeted: "We are bringing back the 8pm applause, in our 3rd lockdown. I hope it can lift the spirit, of all of us. Carers, teachers, home-schooling parents, those who are shielding and ALL who are pushing through this difficult time. Please join and share."
The weekly nationwide clap originally started as a way to thank NHS workers for their efforts during the first lockdown.
It went on for 10 weeks before coming to a close at the end of May.
