Many schools across Suffolk have announced they will remain closed to all students on Tuesday as snow from Storm Darcy continues to fall.

Further snow showers are expected in the coming days, with temperatures forecast to remain low throughout the week.

As key workers have been forced to rearrange education for their children due to the closures, hospitals have reassured the community that services remain operating as usual.

East Suffolk and North Essex NHS Foundation Trust (ESNEFT) said it was thankful to staff who are making the "extra efforts" to get to work in the harsh conditions.

It has arranged for its 4x4 "rescue service" to transport workers to and from its hospitals to ensure services can continue.

Neill Moloney, deputy chief executive at ESNEFT, said: “We have robust adverse weather plans in place to make sure we are ready for all eventualities.

“Our teams are working extremely hard and we are very grateful to those who are going to extra efforts to get into work, and to get to patients not only in our hospitals, but to our patients at home and in the local community.

"We are fortunate to have support from a local 4x4 rescue service to help us get staff to and from work safely."

West Suffolk NHS Foundation Trust (WSH), which manages the hospital in Bury St Edmunds, is currently treating 91 Covid-19 patients, according to government data.

A spokesman for WSH reassured the community that the hospital was operating as normal, despite the conditions.
