Children from a Croydon school sent drawings, jokes and messages of support to emergency workers recently as the coronavirus crisis continued to force the country into lockdown.
Met Police from Croydon posted images of the colourful hand drawings to Twitter on Tuesday (April 7) with thanks to the kids who'd sent them into the borough police force.
