He's posted a phone number online and says 'we will try our best to be at your service'


Cardiff City defender Jazz Richards has reached out to the vulnerable and offered his services to those in need as the coronavirus crisis continues to escalate.

The pandemic is threatening to impact the elderly and those with existing health conditions, with the latest government guidelines now urging people to stop social interaction and gathering in public places such as pubs, cafes, restaurants and theatres.

The UK government has advised people over 70 and those in poor health to self-isolate in a bid to reduce the risk of contracting the disease, which would render countless people housebound.

But Bluebirds right back Richards has used his social media platform to tell those who are unable to risk going outside that he, along with a group of his friends, will help wherever he can.


[I"Due to the outbreak of coronavirus and the rapid outbreak leaving people vulnerable, especially the elderly, myself along with a few close friends will try our utmost to help any elderly people get the resources they need,”[/i] he wrote on Instragram.

"Where we are lost and in an unexplainable predicament, we have decided to come together as a group of friends to help the most vulnerable."

Well done Jazz - you’re a legend.

Good man Jazz.

Well done.

Brilliant by Jazz and great credit to the man.

Still prefer Sanderson at right back though!

Unless he's gone back to Wolves of course by the time we get back on the pitch.
