Blantyre Official Coronavirus Group (BOCS) was launched just before lockdown, aiming to keep Blantyre informed about the covid pandemic.

Whats The Queue Like started off as a service for people in Blantyre to check the live status of queues in Blantyre during lockdown, but grew to include other towns. Admittedly, it’s little used given the restrictions lifted, but with lockdowns just around the corner again, a reminder this service is still there. The group will close once the pandemic is over. Meantime it can be followed here: https://www.facebook.com/groups/whatstheQlike/
and finally, Blantyre Market has existed now for a couple of years.
