Family transform entire house into rainbow tribute to the NHS
A man has transformed his entire house into a colourful rainbow tribute to the NHS and those working on the frontline during the coronavirus pandemic.
Like many other families across the UK, Danny Blackwell and his family, originally from Bagillt, placed rainbows in their windows as part of the NHS heroes campaign.
However, the 37-year-old decided to take it further. Using chalk, they coloured each brick of their Wakefield house in a different colour of the rainbow.
Danny, who works as a scaffolder, was looking for a way to entertainhis two children, 13-year-old Lydia and 11-year-old Dainton, and help them get some fresh air while following the government regulations.
Now his rainbow home has attracted attention from locals.
Both Danny's children have also been using chalk on pavements to create more rainbows and lift spirits.
Since the lockdown, people all over the UK have been showing their gratitude to frontline NHS staff by putting up rainbow pictures to clapping in unison every week.
