Natalie Clarke shared this photo of her with her baby daughter. She said: "My lttle lockdown baby girl, Elsie Jean, enjoying her first bonfire night. Elsie was born in 26th March - the first Clap for Carers day and the week the country locked down. We really miss sharing all these firsts with our family, who all live so close by, but try to make the most of it despite being In lockdown." Photo: UGC
