Local hospitals have been offered use of Vicarage Road by Watford.

Watford General Hospital is situated next to the stadium, and the Hornets are trying to help whichever way they can.

Chief executive Scott Duxbury said: "We need to forget football right now and concentrate on doing all we can to support the NHS and, in particular, Watford General Hospital.

"Our proximity as a football club next door to a hospital puts us in a great position to offer help and we're keen to do whatever we possibly can to support NHS staff and their families.

"The UK Government's message has been about doing 'whatever it takes'. Likewise, we'll do 'whatever it takes' here at Vicarage Road to offer our fullest support to the NHS and its people at a time when it's clearly needed most."
